The military-academic complex is merely one of many readily perceptible, but largely ignored, examples of the increasing militarization of American society. While the Pentagon has long sought to exploit and exert influence over civilian cultural institutions, from academia to the entertainment industry, today's massive budgets make its power increasingly irresistible. The Pentagon now has both the money and the muscle to alter the landscape of higher education, to manipulate research agendas, to change the course of curricula and to force schools to play by its rules. |

On April 30th in downtown Champaign, join us to publicly protest
the conditions that cause women to feel unsafe when alone at
night on the streets. The rally begins at 7pm, is open to everyone
regardless of gender, and will include speakers from the U of I
campus and the community. The march starts at 8pm. As the march is
an opportunity for women to come together to symbolically reclaim
“the night,” it is open to women and transgender persons only. A
men’s dialogue about ways in which men can work to end violence
against women will be held simultaneously with the march. Child
care will be provided by CAPP. |

An argument against the continual depiction of American soldiers as "heroes" by the corporate media, when they are engaged in illegal, immoral wars for fallacious reasons, especially wars that leave a radioactive legacy of cancers and deformed children like the present wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. |
