![]() The Building Revolution by Increasing Community Knowledge (BRICK), student organization from SPSCC is proud to announce a free presentation by David Ray Griffin at the Capitol Theater, Dec 3rd at 7pm. His talk entitled “The New Pearl Harbor Revisited: 9/11, The Cover-up and the Exposé”, will discuss new evidence that has come to light regarding 9/11 since the 2004 publication of his now classic book “The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9-11.” David Ray Griffin is a retired professor of philosophy of religion and theology who taught for more than 30 years at the Claremont School of Theology in California. He has written over 30 books, many of which deal with the 9/11 attacks and the implausibility of the Government’s explanation of how they happened. Howard Zinn had this to say about him "Griffin's status as a renowned theologian and his systematic approach to the documented evidence lend this work unique importance and authority. Although still shunned by the mainstream media, his book has already encouraged many thousands to debate the case for possible government complicity and at the very least to demand a full, transparent and truly independent public inquiry." Last Word Books will have available copies of Griffin’s books and DVDs for sale and signing. For more information please contact BRICK at (360)870-7637.

Despite the horrendous events of September 11th, 2001 here in the US - it might be easy to forget another horrendous historical September 11th. 35 years ago, on September 11th, 1973, the democratically elected government of the popular President of Chile was violently upended in a coup d'Etat. Salvador Allende, the democratically elected President was overthrown when subversive elements within the Chilean military stormed and bombed the La Moneda Presidential Palace. Many dissidents were rounded up and they are alleged to have been been killed. The incoming dictator, Augusto Pinochet, is known to have practiced torture in the execution of an authoritarian and harsh, militaristic rule over the people of Chile.
