Our Goals-- These
goals were agreed to at the February 26, 2005
Houston Global Awareness/Halliburton Campaign
Meeting.
1. Halliburton out of Iraq.
Halliburton’s
operations are essential to the continuing US
presence in Iraq and forcing their withdrawal
would shut down parts and motives of the U.S.
occupation. Begin an aggressive, relentless and
innovative campaign will create an economic,
political and social climate that will
ultimately force Halliburton from Iraq.
2.End the US wars for empire, end the US
occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan. Prevent
future US attacks on other countries.
3. De-Centralized community-based mobilization.
We work to create open, welcoming, inspiring
spaces where the voices of the social and
economic justice majority can be heard through
real, direct democracy. We will help catalyze
racially just, non-patriarchal, mass movements
to challenge corporate and government power and
create socially just, directly democratic,
ecological, equitable, and peaceful
alternatives.
4. Normalize the use of Direct Action and Popular
Education as tools and tactics for social
change. We will act in accordance with the rich
traditions of social movements before us, which
have succeeded using nonviolent resistance to
challenge injustice. Furthermore, we will work
to use a horizontal form of educating one
another and creating a progressive community.
