Subject: The Four Freedoms

"In the future days, which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world
founded upon four essential human freedoms.
    The first is freedom of speech and expression - everywhere in the world.
    The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way -
everywhere in the world.
    The third is freedom from want - which, translated into world terms,
means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy
peacetime life for its inhabitants - everywhere in the world.
    The fourth freedom is freedom from fear - which, translated into world
terms, means a worldwide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a
thorough fashion, that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of
physical aggression against any neighbour - anywhere in the world.

Franklin D. Roosevelt

Subject: cj#469> an Alliance Statement of Purpose (proposed) (fwd)

> The Alliance (arising out of Ronnie Dugger's "Call to Citizens") is making

Richard,

I will have to go back through my saved messages from you, but I think this
would have been a good place to reiterate how to join the Alliance list...

Subject: Bad Haircut E-Zine #11

                         ***********

Questioner at public meeting in Calcutta:
        "Professor, as you know the Indian government is
        rushing ahead with globalization of the economy and
        opening it up as a free market. What effects do
        you expect?"

Noam Chomsky:
        "I think you know already. The British did the
        same to you 200 years ago."


                    BAD HAIRCUT E-Zine #11
                      February 18,1996
                         Ray Goforth
                         Kim Goforth

Welcome to the latest issue of Bad Haircut.  We're indebted to
Mike Holderness for the Chomsky quote.  B.H. was a zine for
several years and now it has been reanimated as an electronic
magazine (e-zine) for free distribution through the internet.
Feel free to make copies and share with friends (or enemies).

Those wishing to be added to the subscription list (or
conversely, those who want off the list) should write to us at:

For those who have inquired:  We (Kim and Ray Goforth) spent
several years doing progressive political organizing work in
southern California.  We moved to Seattle, Washington, USA in
1988 where we took positions with different social service
agencies. In 1995, we both completed undergraduate degrees in
political-economy.  We are currently law students.  Kim's area of
interest is women's and children's advocacy.  Ray's is
sustainable development and human rights.
