Is there anybody out there?

Who wants to go in with me to fill my van & trailer with goods to help unaided hurricane survivors in Louisiana, where I am from.

In July, the City of Santa Cruz (santacruz.indymedia.org/newswire/display/18139/index.php) passed a resolution calling on the governor of California to call for California National Guard troops to be brought home from Iraq so they can be of service here in the United States, as they were intended to be. Our need for their help was never more apparent last week as hundreds of thousands of hurricane victims were stranded with little organized response from the state or federal level. Even FOX News was asking where the National Guard was last Friday!

Hurricane Katrina swept through the Gulf Coast region, August 29 leaving a path of death and destruction. With the eyes of the world focussed squarely on the relief efforts there, we are hearing alot of stories about the inadequate response of the federal government. Rather than complain, some people have decided to take matters into there own hands, and provide some measure of relief to whoever they can. One such person is Santa Cruz resident Gary McGlaughlin, a construction contractor who got in touch with some old friends in Tennesee working with the group Plenty International.

Since disaster displaced hundreds of thousands from New Orleans, I've heard much talk from self-appointed experts about what will be the fate of New Orleans residents and very little input from community members themselves. This organization is being set up as a "People's Hurricane Fund," which is organized by progressive community leaders from the New Orleans area. It is endorsed by United States Labor Against War.

The current administration in the White House is fast becoming one whose "accomplishments" are measured now more in terms of body bags and the availability of potable water than anything remotely resembling genuine progress. From the streets of Fallujah and Baghdad now to the gulf coast of the United States, the consequences of a White House that worships the supposed miracle solution of "free markets" and digital warfare in all things has finally come full circle.
