The "Battle in Seattle" 25 Years Later, part 5. w/ the Houston Global Awareness Collective (G&R 344)

サマリー
あらすじ・解説
On November 30th, 1999, a huge movement spanning labor, environment, human rights, fair trade and more literally shut down the World Trade Organization in Seattle. It was milestone in the growing anti-corporate globalization movement and challenged the inevitability of neo-liberalism.
In a new series of episodes, we're looking at the 25th anniversary of the "Battle in Seattle" talking with a number of people who participated in the organizing and its aftermath.
In this episode, we talk about the influence that Seattle had on our own organizing in Houston, TX. In 2001, we officially formed the Houston Global Awareness Collective with our comrades. We focused on political education around corporate globalization, empire and anti-capitalism (sound familiar? maybe you heard something of this on a podcast). After 9/11, our emphasis shifted to the anti-war movements and eventually began a local campaign against corporate war profiteer Halliburton.
Bio// Scott Parkin and Bob Buzzanco are the co-founders of the Houston Global Awareness Collective [amongst other things].
And the rest, as they say,…is history.
