********************
What can we do? We can hone our memory, we can learn from our history.
We can continue to build public opinion until it becomes a deafening
roar...We can re-invent civil disobedience in a million different ways.
In other words, we can come up with a million ways of becoming a
collective pain in the ass. Our strategy should be not only to confront
empire, but to lay siege to it. To deprive it of oxygen. To shame it.
To mock it. With our art, our music, our literature, our stubbornness,
our joy, our brilliance, our sheer relentlessness - and our ability to
tell our own stories. Stories that are different from the ones we're
being brainwashed to believe. The corporate revolution will collapse if
we refuse to buy what they are selling - their ideas, their version of
history, their wars, their weapons, their notion of inevitability.
Remember this: We be many and they be few. They need us more than we
need them. Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a
quiet day, I can hear her breathing.
