Anti-Inaugural Protests

[Nathan Newman]

They are a front for the Workers World Party- basic ideology is what they
call global class war, which means defending China's policy down to shooting
people in Tianenmen Square.  But they are pretty good at building coalitions
for one-day protests - in fact that is their major skill - so more power to
them and everyone endorsing the J20 actions.  Many of the Seattle, A16 and
Philadelphia folks are mobilizing for J20 and the National Lawyers Guild is
already mobilizing to provide legal support.

So anyone who can should get their butts down to DC.   I'm going to be in
San Francisco myself but I'm pleased (but not surprised) to find they are
holding a West Coast parallel protest in downtown SF as well.   So, as they
are saying, "Hail to the Thief!"

Think I'm approaching daily limit, but I was hoping someone could give
background on the Jan. 20 anti-inaugural protests in D.C.? What are the
politics of the International Action Center?
