New York Times’ Saber-Rattling McCarthyism with Eugene Puryear

Code Pink, Veterans for Peace, and many other organizations sponsored a forum in Washington, DC on Peace In Ukraine.  The forum was facilitated by Eugene Puryear and Media Benjamin with speakers Lee Camp,  Claudia DeLa Cruz, and Cr. Cornell West.  The facilitators and speakers reflect the sentiment of the people of the world and the US in calling for negotiations.  They then ask us to make waves and noise and bring that message to our leaders.  Just like the song we end with they ask us to STAND like Sly Stone.
