 courage were a pin striped suit, Col. Ann Wright would be seen wearing hers 
 every day.   Given the US State Department’s Award for Heroism for her 
 actions in evacuating civilians from civil war in Sierra Leon, Col. Wright 
 put her career on the line when, on March 19, 2003, she resigned her State 
 Department post in protest of the Bush Administration’s planned invasion 
 of Iraq.  Since then she has picketed at Guantanamo, served on the 
 international impeachment commission, and has been arrested numerous times 
 for non-violent protest of the Bush administration’s policies.  Recently 
 she co-authored a book that, according to Daniel Ellsberg “should be 
 leaked into the government.”  \nDissent: Voices of Conscience brings us 
 the words of government insiders who have spoken out against the War in 
 Iraq.  As Howard Zinn notes “it takes a special courage for men and women 
 inside the government to speak out.”  Ann Wright has this special 
 courage.   Col. Wright’s website is www.voicesofconscience.com  \nThe 
 public will have an opportunity to hear Col. Wright speak on the topic 
 “Abandoning War: A People’s Agenda” on Thursday, February 12, at 
 Hartnell College in the Steinbeck Hall.  Doors open at 6:30, talk starts at 
 7:00.  This event is sponsored by the Hartnell College Students for Peace.  
 For information contact LeeAnn at 770-7011 or Deanne at 678-0632.   Other 
 appearances for Col. Wright are planned on the Monterey Peninsula.  For a 
 schedule contact smscott744@hotmail.com .   \n\n
