Daily People%rsquos Campaign Marches, Rallies To Observe Anniversary Of Epic Montgomery Bus Boycott !
On Tuesday, December 6th, on day 163 of the Daily People%rsquos Campaign for Jobs, Peace, Equality and Justice, the People%rsquos Organization for Progress is proud to announce that many of the 122 organizations now endorsing the Daily Campaign will come together for a march, rally and teach-in to observe the 56th anniversary of the launching of the epic Montgomery Bus Boycott, its inspirational model.
Participants assembled at the Lincoln Monument, located on Springfield Av. and West Market Street at 4:30pm and marched downtown Newark. At 6pm , participants hosted a teach in and rally at Essex County College in the J. Harry Smith lecture hall.
The Daily People%rsquos Campaign was launched on June 27th to dramatize the impact of draconian public policies on ordinary people. POP vows to host this daily action everyday for 381 days in honor of the epic Montgomery Bus Boycott that propelled a young Martin Luther King Jr. onto national consciousness! A %lsquonational jobs program%rsquo is at the top of the list of the core issues driving the Campaign.
The Montgomery Bus Boycott was launched on Dec 5, 1955 against the very humiliating racially segregated busing in Alabama in the aftermath of the dramatic arrest of civil rights pioneer and legend Rosa Parks. The Boycott, enduring police and Klan terror, lasted 381 days when it led to a federal court order ending that segregated busing.
Monday through Friday, the Daily People%rsquos Campaign takes place from 4:30-6pm at the Lincoln Monument, Springfield Av. and West Market St. On Saturdays, the Daily Campaign takes place on Broad and Market
Streets, downtown Newark from 12 noon to 2pm. On Sundays, the Daily Campaign returns to the Lincoln Monument from 2-3pm .
The People%rsquos Organization for Progress meets every Thursday at Abyssinian Baptist Church, 224 West Kinney Street, Newark at 6:30pm .

Tom Tancredo just asks whether military can "segregate in their own ranks" after repeal of DADT
[LESS INFO] 3 VIEWS | ADDED 22:00:07 12/22/10
Mr. Tom 'Miami is a Third World Country' Tancredo went on radio and just brought up what he feels is a relevant question about the repealing of DADT: That is, can the military segregate the troops based on sexual preferences? What a guy. People like him openly foment hostility, the kind that usually leads to violence.
Political Correction: >
Unsurprisingly, Tancredo, who has made his anti-immigrant views well known, isn't in favor of the DREAM Act (which, he claimed, will give special affirmative action treatment to tons of people sneaking in from Latin America and Africa). He was also skeptical about the "political" repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," but fortunately for the large majorities of Americans and military personnel who wanted DADT to go away, Tancredo isn't in charge; President Obama signed repeal into law this morning.
Yet, knowing what was coming, Tancredo clung to hope that our combat troops might be saved from actually having to serve in close quarters with those scary gays. "I wonder," he mused, "to what extent this ruling allows the military to segregate within their own ranks." >
TANCREDO: I have a feeling there may be other problems that develop. Certainly those kinds of things have been expressed by the head of the — by the common head of the Marine Corps. And I would — among other things I wonder to what extent this ruling allows the military to segregate within their own ranks. That is to say, it's okay, just as we said that it was ok to have females in the military but we would segregate them into non-combative roles, then would this be — I wonder if we could do the same thing in this situation, saying that just the environment in combat does not lend itself to having these other pressures on the people that we ask to do the fighting. I don't know. I'm just asking a question. I do not know if that was part of the bill that was passed today by the Senate, whether it really went into that kind of detail. I doubt it. Usually these things go over to the military and you know the military is just simply told, "implement."
Tancredo is already well-established as a vicious nativist who always takes the low road, so what do you expect from him? No wonder he's a Tea Party favorite.

In this clip Alan Colmes tells Tancredo that Jeb Bush called him a "nut" because he called Miami a 'third world country'. Tom's response was to of course equate being called a nut was like being called the "N" word if you're African American. >
Tancredo: Did he use the "N" word? We got into an argument into what it means to be a third world country.
Here's a few of his other greatest hits. >

What's up with all these arguments over feminism these days, anyway? ; The Daily Show and Gawker blog Jezebel have an argument over its representation of women; meanwhile, Sarah Palin is a feminist! Except when she's not! And the Atlantic has declared The End of Men . What's it all about?Who better to discuss all this than blogger and author Amanda Marcotte, who joins us in studio to talk about The Daily Show 's hiring Olivia Munn, Sarah Palin's fundraising skills (or lack thereof) and the latest battle over reproductive choice, as well as her new book, Get Opinionated: A Progressive's Guide to Finding Your Voice (and Taking a Little Action). In 2011 Arizona is set to host Major League Baseball's All-Star game, but as the stop-on-suspicion anti-immigrant law, SB 1070, goes into effect soon, artists, musicians, and people from all over the country are joining in a boycott of the state. What about baseball?GRITtv's staff checked out a protest this past week in Manhattan, calling on Commissioner Bud Selig to move the All-Star game out of Arizona. You can find out more about the movement--several players have pledged not to play in Arizona--at MoveTheGame.org .Thanks to our interns Isabel Braverman and Rebecca Coffman from Ithaca college for assistance with this piece.REFRAKA, a Creole acronym for Women’s Community Radio Network, was founded in Haiti in 2001 as a way to make women’s voices heard around the country. On January 12, it took on a new meaning as, like many other organizations in Haiti, it suffered from the earthquake. Nevertheless, REFRAKA has continued to not only restructure Haiti’s patriarchal society, but now integrates rural women’s opinions on this historical tragedy as well as the reconstruction process into the media.Pakistani militant extremism and American drones, which are the real terrorists? Is it one, the other, or an ironic joint effort of the two? Between suicide bombings and collateral damage from drones, thousands of militants and civilians alike have been killed by both.The Real News Network reports from Islamabad, Pakistan that while many students from tribal areas report that their communities oddly support the drone attacks, the majority of the country sees the predator drones as an encroachment on national sovereignty fostering bitter anti-American sentiment.Finally, six current and former New Orleans police officers were charged this week in two shootings of unarmed men in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. A Justice Department investigation into the force was the cause. What about some Justice Department reform in other cities' police departments?
