Abstract: 
Winter of 2004. This issue opens up with a few stories and articles about the reelected Bush, from various angles (why it sucks, why we should still be positive….) From there it goes into a rather depressing (yet still humorous) account of what it’s like to be a substitute teacher in the Chicagoland high schools. Other stories include subjects like tuberculosis, Hiroshima, and predictions of the future! Full size, 20 pages.

Throw Away Your Dictionary: A Tool for Activists

Catalog Number: 
z.83
Date: 
2003
Volume: 
n/a
Abstract: 
&quot;For some months now, I have been engaged in the process of teaching youth-- who have a natural inclination for such things anyway-- that everything they have ever been told is wrong. Under the belief that it is not too late for the best and brightest of old dogs to learn new tricks, I wish to impart some of the same basic information that I have been giving them. My aim is to give activists and other critical thinkers new tools for dismantling the master's house.&quot;<br />
