At the end of their life, the best you can say about some folks is that they really didn't do much harm, or maybe they were nice to their kids. This week on "Indymedia Presents" we pay tribute to another fallen comrade. Jim Hinde, well known Seattle busker, passed away. Just about anybody who has spent much time in Seattle's open-air public market probably saw Jim playing at one time or another. He entertained, all right, but more to the point, he inspired and influenced many with his music. When we got word that Jim had passed, we made another death-defying trip into our archives and found an old piece of Jim Hinde performing live at a demonstration, singing his song "Raise Your Glass, Raise Your Voice."
We raise our glass and dedicate this show to Jim Hinde.

Utah Phillips was a personal friend of some of the members of the PepperSpray Collective stretching back almost 30 years. He recently passed away. Radicalized in part because of his experiences as a soldier in the US war against Korea, he went on to become the most famous member of the International Workers of the World (IWW or "Wobblies") in modern times. He was a great storyteller and singer, and a champion of the class struggle.
When we got the call that Utah had passed, we dug around in our library to unearth the piece that leads off this episode of "Indymedia Presents," an interview with Utah Phillips conducted by Kay Powers, in which he gives, among other things, his advice to graduating high school students.
Utah Phillips. Live like him.

Moving from the past to the present, we round off the show with Season 2, Episode 9 of Franlin Lopez's "Its The End Of The World As We Know It, and I Feel Fine." Franklin's highly political pieces amount to a very watchable all out frontal attack on the citadels of capitalism.

It was a moment without historical precedent, American workers striking against a war that
It was a moment without historical precedent, American workers striking against a war that their government is waging. On Mayday this year, the International Longshore & Warehouse Union (ILWU) shut down every port on the west coast of the United Stated--all 26 of them--in opposition to the US war against the people of Iraq. A few weeks back we reported on the struggle of Iraqi labor unions in the Basra area, who are fighting against the privatization of Iraqi ports and oil fields. As US missiles rained down on their houses, and the puppet government tried to arrest union leaders, they called for international solidarity and support from organized labor. The ILWU answered that cry bigtime. Now, on "Indymedia Presents" ----we bring you a report of the Mayday strike that completely shut down every port on the west coast for at least 8 hours. Longshoremen stayed off the job and in major port cities they marched, proud, in their union jackets, banners unfurled. In response, dock workers in Iraq shut down the port there for two hours. It was like a blinking signal light on a distant shore at night, acknowledging that the message of solidarity had been received.
The Seattle Times reported that "dozens" of dock workers protested in Seattle. In our report you can clearly see the demonstration is 5 lanes wide, stretching back past the focus of the camera. There were "dozens" just in the first row or two. PepperSpray was there to document this heroic moment. It was a bit of a cinematographer's dilemma: how do you show something like a stop work situation, where the story is "something's NOT happening." We arrived at the hall early and union members showed us where to get beautiful shots of the idle port. Later we captured the march, the music, the mood. We're proud of the ILWU, and it shows in this report.

Pepperperson Steve Anderson turned in his first "major" piece, so we lead the show off with Steve's report on the Pastors For Peace caravans that break the US blockade of Cuba by taking medical and other needed supplies across the US border on their way to Cuba. Year after year these heros face down the US government as they tour America, gathering the supplies, and then blatantly take another shipment across the border to deliver it to the Cuban people. Steve weaves their story in with glimpses of a Cuba Americans are prohibited by our own government from seeing.

Then its on to that rascal the Stimul8tor for another episode of "Its the End Of The World As We Know IT, and I Feel Fine." Besides the hijinks we have learned to anticipate, in this episode we hear from Scott Ritter, former UN Weapons Inspector, as he explains how he personally briefed many of the people in Washington who now claim they had no way of knowing that Bush & Company were full of the stuff birds pick at when they were proclaiming WMDs in Iraq, as an excuse to go to a wrongful war. We also get some great rap and an interview with Anne E. Moore, Punk Planet zine-maker and author of "Unmarketable: Brandalism, Copyfighting, Mocketing, and the Erosion of Integrity." You wonder what those terms mean? Tune in and find out.
