WHAT IS THE G8? How are local struggles affected by global financial decisionmaking?
The G8, or "Group of 8", the world's richest and most powerful governments, will be meeting in Alberta, Canada in June 2002. This secretive and elitist group imposes its neo-liberal economic agenda on the resut of us through its influence on such worthy targets as the WTO, World Bank, and IMF.

They will discuss the links between local struggles and the globalization of neo-liberalism touted by the G8.

WHERE: Room 202,Northeastern School of Law, 400 Huntington Ave.
DIRECTIONS:Take Orange Line to Ruggles, or Green Line "E" to Northeastern Stop

Bankbusters, Eh? |

The so-called "Bankbusters" and other prominent "activist" groups in Boston are themselves financed by the private World Bank Group and Federal Reserve Corporation.
The classic strategy employed to neutralize opposition to the criminal status-quo is to divide groups into "leftist extremists" and "nice protestors", ensure that both groups are controlled and divided by little issues, and slander any independent and constructive groups as "LaRouchians", "NAZIs" or some other off-the-shelf label.
What a bore.
If you want to change the status-quo, don't just whine and protest (although that helps). Implement positive, holistic and realistic alternatives that bypass the source of all these endless, destructive symptoms:
FRAUDULANT MONEY.
