terror and its many forms

As I write this I hear there is a chance of a terror attack on Surat or New Delhi.
In the engulfing flames of hatred and bloodshed , I wonder what is the way out and what can we do to stand up as a people to these bullies and say "So much and no more!"

CITIZEN ACTIVISM

In the past one year I have seen the Women Studies centre of Barkatullah University threatened with closure and now the British Council library of Bhopal is to shut down in February.
And I ask myself-are all of us destined to be helpless bystanders while decisions that impact our lives are made by those who do not care what the consequences and costs of that decision will be?
Blogging has given us a voice and Boy are we going to use it.
This blog calls out to all the people out there struggling with injustice. Lets share our pain and our anguish. Lets look for solutions together. Share stories. Success formulas.
Lets support, encourage and hold up each other.
So please, people, i want to hear stories of people banding together and creating change. i want tactics and strategies. i want optimism and idealism and naivette. I want hope.
