Grannies Rage at Capitola Military Recruitment Center

Published on June 26, 2007 in Counter Recruitment, Globalization

On June 26, protestors converged on the Military Recruitment Center in Capitola “to end the war in Iraq now, and to work for a future of peace and justice for all beings, in all places.” The Capitola recruiting offices for the Army, Air Force, Marines and Navy are staffed by pompous and deceitful representatives of the the world’s largest and wealthiest terrorist organization. The recruiters seem to believe the lies and exaggerations they repeat ad nauseum. Read More and View Photos

Teaching Assistants Fight for Workload Protections at UC Campuses

Published on June 12, 2007 in Education, Labor

On June 12th, teaching assistants and other members of UAW Local 2865 held a grade-in at the Baytree Plaza at UC Santa Cruz as part of a statewide action to highlight our demand for better protections against excessive workload. The action was successful and turned out over a thousand TAs, readers, and tutors across seven UC campuses. The willingness of Local 2865 to take action around important issues is a vital part of negotiations. In the bargaining session that took place June 18th and 19th, progress was made towards adding protections against discrimination on the basis of pregnancy or gender identity.

11 Minutes = Trespass ???

In the letter to District Attorney Bob Lee, officials from SPJ NorCal wrote that they were "deeply concerned" about the decision to prosecute Allen, and by "assertions from your office that: 1) a reporter may be prosecuted for conspiracy simply by providing coverage of a newsworthy event and 2) Indybay is not a bona fide news organization."

The letter also states that it's inappropriate and unconstitutional "for a public prosecutor to single out representatives of a disfavored news organization for prosecution," and makes the statement that a Sentinel photojournalist was able to enter the occupied building and report from it without being charged. The Sentinel photographer was inside the building for less than 10 minutes on Nov. 30 at the beginning of the occupation.

Sentinel Editor Don Miller said the paper's photographer was on scene shooting photos of a news event - the occupation of the bank building by protesters.

Walter Cronkite, Not Sentinel ???

The Society of Professional Journalists filed a letter on behalf of Allen shortly before his March preliminary hearing, as did the Reporter’s Committee for Freedom of the Press. “Mr. Allen is a photojournalist and National Press Photographers Association member whose involvement in alleged criminal activity has amounted to no more than coverage of a newsworthy event,” wrote Lucy A. Dalgish, executive director for the Reporters Committee.

Assistant District Attorney Rebekah Young doesn’t see it that way and says a reporter’s resumé is no excuse for trespassing. “At the end of the day it really doesn’t matter,” Young says. “You could be Walter Cronkite and still be prosecuted. You could be the editor-in-chief for the New York Times.”
