imageThe Story Berkeley News Won't Print: Vacant Building Ideal for Homeless Shelter
picture01.jpg
by Randall Reed Busang
The old Adult School complex in lower Berkeley has been sitting empty and idle for years, ideal for a large shelter for Berkeley's 2000-plus homless population of men and boys. Berkeley's clique of workers and administrators in social services is so hopelessly mired in sixties-style thinking they refuse to consider the idea....

imageBerkeley High Students Put Pro-War Rally on Defensive, Oppose Military Recruiting
01-465-die-in.jpg
by Jeff Paterson, Courage to Resist
Hundreds of Berkeley High Students surrounded a pro-war mobilization across from City Hall. The pro-war forces were mobilized by national right-wing radio talk shows in order to “punish” the city council for taking a strong stand against military recruiting. Nearly a hundred anti-war supporters of the city’s stand to oppose recruiting, the war in Iraq, and the city’s status of a sanctuary city for conscientious objectors and war resisters encamped on the City Hall lawn for the 24 hours leadin...

arguing_with_pro-war_sm_.jpg
by Felix Barrett
On Feb 12, 2 sides faced off in Berkeley. On the one side were anti-war and progressive people supporting the city council's resolution last week saying that marine recruiters are unwelcome in Berkeley. On the other side were pro-Iraq war, pro-marine reactionaries mobilized by talk radio etc. Despite all the media reports that hordes od pro-war people would be decending on Berkeley the anti-marine recruiter protesters outnumbered the reactionaries most of the day. Hundreds of Berkeley Hig...
