[DEBATE] : Corporate Control Campaign SUGGESTION DB

[Dennis Brutus]

Re corporate control campaign; this is an important initiative which should be supported widely. With the U S Circuit Court of Appeals finding in favour of Khulumani et al this week we have entered a new phase of our struggle against 24+ mulinational corporations and need to mobilize internationally. I suggest both Khulumani and Jubilee South Africa link up with this campaign and act swiftly.   I will also contact them as an individual. I would appreciate responses to my suggestion, especially from JSA members  Fraternally, Dennis Brutus

Subject: [DEBATE] : Corporate Control Campaign

Strategic Corporate Initiative: toward a global citizens' movement to 
bring corporations back under control
There are tectonic stresses building beneath the surface of our society 
that threaten a global earthquake unlike any we've seen in recent 
history. Global warming is accelerating; fossil fuels are being rapidly 
exhausted; critical eco-systems have been severely damaged; and the 
income gap between rich and poor is increasing rapidly. The root cause 
of most of these problems can be found in the excessive power of global 
corporations. To solve these problems, civil society must bring 
corporations back under its control.
