Chicago News and Letters Committee Invites You to Our First Discussion of the New Year... "Bush's War on Freedom in the U.S." Monday The massive assault leveled on civil liberties since Sept. 11 by George Bush and Attorney General John Ashcroft, under the guise of fighting terrorism, has reached such a chilling point that some legal scholars are calling it a "constitutional coup d'etat." This will affect all the struggles for freedom in this country from the anti-globalization movement, to the fight against police brutality, the death penalty, the prison industrial complex, and in support of Mumia Abu-Jamal and other political prisoners. It is clear Bush and Ashcroft knew where they wanted to take this country long before the reactionary Islamic fundamentalist movement handed them their opportunity. The question now is how much further they will go.Join us for a discussion of the ramifications of the new repressive laws and the new resistance that will surely be inspired by them.Speakers:
