And yet have you ever realized that by holding on to these painful feelings you are giving away your power and control to the person who has hurt you? The truth is, when we blame another person for how we feel, we give them power and control over our emotional well-be

Michael Seifu Could Aid Money Fuel Conflicts?

The year was Nineteen Eight-Four, both in the literal and Orwellian sense. Ethiopia was under a military junta which dragged the country into internal and external conflicts with millions of lives lost. What made the situation in that year particularly of apocalyptic proportionns was the severest drought and famine. By October 1984, the death toll from the famine has reached more than 200000 while million others risked death in months, if not weeks. The famine was at its worst in the war-torn no… Continue

David Swanson I'm Down With Dennis

By David Swanson

Let me get this straight. The Senate will pass a public option if the House will. And the House will, because it already did. But House Speaker Nancy Pelosi won’t allow it. So the mortal enemy of public-option backers is . . . Dennis Kucinich.

Why? Because when Congressman Kucinich said he'd stand for a public option he stupidly thought he was supposed to mean it.

Let's review a brief history of the disease known as "health insurance reform."

Gathered on this page are some of the major think tanks, public policy institutes, NGO’s, and universities in Washington, DC and the metropolitan area that frequently host eve… Continue

Cori Peace is Choice

A few weeks ago I ran a peace course at the Lutheran Theological
Seminary in Pretoria. I looked at the basic concepts of peace,
understanding and analysing a conflict, possible interventions to a
conflict and basic concepts of reconciliation. I also spent some
time looking at nonviolent communication.

While preparing for the course, I came across so many concepts, ideas, stories and
experiences that reminded me of the necessity of the way of peace as a
