Referred Action
Hey, People!
Yes, I’m aware of the fact that I railed for two weeks in a row about the dearth of activism in Olympia — and now I’m basically taking a bunch of time off myself for a personal project.
Well — I need to take care of myself if I want to continue doing what I do and feathering a nest where I can be without worrying about coming up with extortionist rents has become part of taking care of myself.
I have included a full activist calendar from Glen Anderson this week (who seems to never take a break) and I intend to solicit information from others about the upcoming election as I’m not going to have time myself to cover it properly.
Once I get into a groove and once the novelty wears off a little then I imagine I will still be able to come up with a few things now and then, but for the next few months we’re very likely to have some foreshortened Thunderbolts.
—
Anyway, I need to go build a bus, so it’s time to get to work…

Weekly Events:
Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday (and anytime online): “Glen’s Parallax Perspectives” – Each month a new TV interview program focuses on an issue related to peace, social justice, environment, economics, or other progressive issue. It airs three times a week on Thurston Community Media (cable channel 22 in Thurston County WA): Mondays at 1:30 pm, Wednesdays at 5:00 pm, and Thursdays at 9:00 pm. Also, people anywhere can watch at any time through Glen’s blog, www.parallaxperspectives.org. Each program is posted to the blog’s “TV Programs” category and also to categories related to the topic (e.g., “Peace” or “Economics”). Each blog post includes a link to the video and a link to a thorough summary Glen typed up, so you can read what we said during the interview. The thorough summary also includes links to many sources of information. Info: Glen Anderson 491-9093 glenan...@integra.net
Info about the OCTOBER TV program: “Religious Freedom – What it IS and What it is NOT” -- The October 2021 episode of “Glen’s Parallax Perspectives” TV series (watchable on your computer as well as local cable TV) provides fresh information and insights into some controversies that have confused and misled many Americans about many matters, including our human rights and how our government functions.
In a free society, people need to get along with each other – including people whose beliefs differ from each other – and we must protect fairness for all people. This includes the relationships between religious beliefs and governments.
The October interview features a national-level expert who clarifies what religious freedom IS and what it is NOT. We clear up confusion about the American principle of the separation of Church and State. We set the record straight on how to protect religious freedom and our democracy and human rights.
My guest, Rob Boston, has worked many years for a nationwide organization that I support, Americans United for the Separation of Church and State. Their website says: “The wall of separation between church and state protects us all. It makes our country more fair, more equal and more inclusive.” Their website says it envisions “a nation where everyone can freely choose a faith and support it voluntarily, or follow no religious or spiritual path at all, and where the government does not promote religion over non-religion or favor one faith over another.”
Thurston County’s people with cable TV can watch it 13 times throughout the month on channel 22 (every Monday at 1:30 pm, every Wednesday at 5:00 pm, and every Thursday at 9:00 pm).
Also, before it debuts on TV on September 1, Glen Anderson will post it to his blog, www.parallaxperspectives.org, so people anywhere can watch it at any time. He will post the video and also a transcript of what he said during the TV program to three parts of his blog: “TV Programs,” “Energy,” and “Climate.”

Thurston Climate Action Team (TCAT) has a calendar listing many climate-related and environmental activities throughout the month. See their calendar at this link: https://thurstonclimateaction.org/calendar/
FRI OCT 1 THROUGH SUN OCT 31: The Center for Constitutional Rights invites you to watch powerfully informative films in its month-long “War on Terror” Film Festival: This series (https://wotfilmfestival.com) is a month-long, virtual program organized by the Coalition for Civil Freedoms featuring 20 award-winning films made over the last 20 years that document abuses, highlight crimes, and satirize absurdities of the so-called “War on Terror.” This virtual film festival will take viewers on a journey to bear witness to the devastating consequences of the United States’ wars and security state. Together, these films paint a picture of the experiences of those who bore the brunt of U.S. post-9/11 policies, as well as their pain, hope, and resilience.
The slate of featured films include documentary and narrative features and cut across genres from drama to comedy--and include some of Center for Constitutional Rights’ staff favorites! From the Oscar-winning Citizenfour and Taxi to the Dark Side to the Oscar-nominated Dirty Wars and the highly-acclaimed The Mauritanian, Four Lions, Fahrenheit 9/11 and The Feeling of Being Watched, these films shine a spotlight on the wars on Afghanistan and Iraq, indefinite detention at Guantánamo Bay prison, torture, and surveillance. Each screening will be accompanied by a panel discussion with filmmakers, actors, scholars, survivors, and resisters, who will reflect on the challenges of living through these policies and telling these stories.
All films and panel discussions will be accessible through the website. Register to receive email updates and full, free access to watch the films.
The Center for Constitutional Rights stands with social justice movements and communities under threat—fusing litigation, advocacy, and narrative shifting to dismantle systems of oppression regardless of the risk.

SAT-SUN OCT 9-10 and SAT-SUN OCT 16-17: Learn how to organize for more profound democracy, including the rights of nature and people-powered solidarity with the environment: A Virtual Democracy School will be conducted by the Snohomish County Community Rights (SCCR) on these four days from 10:00 a.m. to 12:30 pm Pacific Time. It is based on the insights and activities of the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund (CELDF). Educating yourself and your community is one of the most powerful steps toward change you can make. Democracy School is a stimulating and illuminating virtual course that teaches residents and activists an empowering new approach about how to reframe exhausting and often discouraging single-issue work – such as banning pesticides, halting overdevelopment, protecting water and watersheds, and addressing climate change – in a way that we can confront corporate control and government interference on a powerful front: the people’s right of local self-governance and Nature’s rights. More information and registration Also see the Website post Space is limited. Please register soon. More info: Snohomish County Community Rights
MON OCT 11: The KEEP YOUR PROMISES RALLY in Tacokma urges Congress to protect immigrants’ rights and pass BOTH the infrastructure package and the Build Back Better package. As Congress struggles to pass the Infrastructure and Build Back Better Bills, the promised pathway to citizenship might get dropped out of this crucial legislation. We can't let this happen! Immigrant advocates have called for a National Week of Action to demand that our Democratic legislators keep their promise to deliver on citizenship this year. Many organizations in Washington State that support immigrants’ rights are organizing and supporting today’s rally. It runs from 5:30 to 7:00 pm at the Northwest Detention Center, 1623 East J Street, Tacoma. At 5:30 people can gather, get to know each other, and make signs before the one-hour rally starts at 6:00.

Fossil Fuels - Week of Action: The excellent non-profit organization Beyond Extreme Energy (www.beyondextremeenergy.org) invites all of us to take very strong nonviolent actions now to keep global temperature increases below 1.5o Centigrade. Despite Biden's promises of making the U.S. a global climate leader, he has taken no steps to halt fossil fuel development and his infrastructure plan is a mire of false solutions. From October 11 to 15 thousands of people are taking action in Washington D.C. as part of the People vs. Fossil Fuels week of action. We invite you to join us in taking non-violent direct action to increase the pressure on the Biden Administration. You’ll be joined by frontline activists fighting against fossil fuel expansion, indigenous organizers fighting for land sovereignty, and community members fighting against environmental racism.

WED OCT 13: How Washington state can fix our Mental Health Care CRISIS: Suicide is the tenth leading cause of death overall in the U.S., and the second leading cause of death among youth and young adults aged 10-34. What makes this problem worse is that millions of Americans cannot access or afford behavioral health care, and the pandemic has made America’s mental health crisis even worse! Join Health Care for All - WA on Wednesday, October 13 at 7:00 p.m., for “How Washington state can fix our Mental Health Care CRISIS.” Our special guest, Katherine Seibel, MSSW, from the Washington state chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness will review the victories for behavioral health care in the 2021 Legislative Session and address the priorities for next year. Bring a friend and share with your networks! RSVP here! Health Care for All-WA has been working effectively for many years to promote Universal Single-Payer Health Care statewide. See their website: http://www.healthcareforallwa.org/
THURS OCT 14: Town Hall: Governmental corruption and the decline in public trust: The public is increasingly alarmed and angry that all levels of government have been corrupted. This has weakened the public’s trust in government. That endangers democracy even further! Today’s nationwide virtual event will help you understand why trust in government is so low — and what Congress can do about it. Representative Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) will headline the event, and her remarks will be followed by a discussion with a panel of experts on government corruption. If you register ahead of time, you can submit questions before the event starts. It runs from 2:30 to 3:30 pm Eastern Time (11:30-12:30 Pacific Time). Register Now
THURS OCT 14: Talk online with progressive prosecuting attorney Larry Krasner about how to significantly reform the criminal justice system: In 2017, Philadelphia’s voters elected Larry Krasner, an absolutely transformational leader to become Philadelphia's District Attorney. As one of the first truly progressive District Attorneys of a major American city, Krasner has reformed sentencing guidelines and eliminated the use of cash bail in many cases. He has placed his focus on fighting for stronger rehabilitative services, working with community activists, and fundamentally shifting away from punishment and towards rehabilitation. A civil rights lawyer with a track record of successfully holding the police accountable, Larry Krasner is one of the most prolific and important figures in the criminal justice movement. Here is your opportunity to join with Larry Krasner and other progressives in discussing his book For the People: A Story of Justice and Power – and his inspiring vision of how people can take back power to establish real justice. So, whether you've already read the book or haven't and just want to learn more about criminal justice in America, please join us on October 14th at 6:30 pm ET to be a part of the conversation. That’s 3:30 pm Pacific Time. RSVP HERE: https://act.democracyforamerica.com/survey/Book_Club_Krasner/?refcode=g-krasnerEvent211004.d-20211004.m-27370.s-242357&akid=27370%2E2917727%2Evic3fl

TUES OCT 19: The Rights of Nature: Saving the Planet or Harmful to Humanity? This is part of the weekly webinar series sponsored by Gonzaga University’s Climate Center. The “rights of nature” concept asserts that the environmental regulatory system – which treats nature as merely property to be owned – has failed to protect nature and our own life support systems, and that a radical change in the law is needed which re-positions humanity in the role of a guardian or trustee of the best interests of those natural systems. Opponents of this approach see recognizing the rights of nature as inappropriate and ultimately demeaning to the special dignity of the human person – undermining a rights-based system of law which makes humans exceptional. This webinar features one panelist on each side: Thomas Linzey, Senior Legal Counsel, the Center for Democratic and Environmental Rights (CDER) and Wesley J. Smith, Chair and Senior Fellow, Discovery Institute’s Center on Human Exceptionalism. This Zoom meeting is FREE and OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. It runs from 5:30 to 7:00 pm (Pacific Time). Register at this link: https://gonzaga.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJ0rf-uhqD8rG9UsBgz8ic2B3G7xjihoYbmg

1B) Corporate-Backed Police Foundations Pose 'Threat to Democracy and Black Lives'
I also got this information from Glen:
Corporate-Backed Police Foundations Pose 'Threat to Democracy and Black Lives': Report
"We cannot let corporations talk about 'Black lives' on their Twitter feeds while also funding police violence on our streets."
For many years, Badshah Khan – a devout pacifist Muslim from the mountainous Pashtun area of what is now in Pakistan, NW of India and near Afghanistan – practiced courageous nonviolent resistance to the British Empire along with Mohandas (“the Mahatma”) Gandhi. He found that profound nonviolence was fully compatible with his Islamic faith, just as Gandhi found it fully compatible with his Hindu faith. This man organized an “army” of pacifist Muslims to practice Satyagraha in support of independence – and he spent many years in prisons in his homeland. (Some accounts exceed the 16 years I had heard of, ranging up to 30 or 37 years in total.) I highly recommend the informative and inspiring book by Eknath Easwaran titled: A Man to Match His Mountains. Here is something he wrote about Satyagraha:
"Satyagraha has a double meaning: it signifies a determined holding on to, a grappling with truth, while at the same time it implies the force that arises from that grappling, what Gandhi called “soul-force”. It stands for both the means and the ends, the struggle and the force that is generated in the struggle. As heat is generated by friction, Gandhi contended, power is released from writhing the depths of the human spirit in its struggle toward truth."
—Badshah Khan, who was known as “The Frontier Gandhi”
