The catholic worker is 70+ year old radical anarcho-pacifist movement of some 180 autonomous communities (mostly in North America) combining the practise of the acts of mercy and nonviolent resistance. The CW houses and projects refuse all state funding. The Philadelphia catholic worker operates a free clinic and has a longstanding relationship with the "Mathew 25 -House of Hospitality" free clinic in Haiti.

The catholic worker delegation presently in Haiti includes CW nurse Joanna Berrigan, radical Detroit Bishop Thomas Gumbleton who has a long anti-war history and sanctios breaking in Iraq in the '90's and radical lawyer Bill Quigley who has longstanding involvement in Haitian human rights cases.

Background on the CW dlegation and Mathew 25 project (including a television news report) can be found on this link.....

(CAIRO) Gaza Freedom Marchers yesterday, 1st January 2010, approved a declaration aimed at accelerating the global campaign for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) against Israeli Apartheid.

As a result, the Freedom Marchers remained in Cairo. They staged a series of nonviolent actions aimed at pressuring the international community to end the siege as one step in the larger struggle to secure justice for Palestinians throughout historic Palestine.

The following declaration arose from those actions: read full story / add a comment
