The article sheds light on various socio-political developments in and around the U.S. after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. During the last weekend in September, antiwar protests in the nation's capital underscored the New York City antiwar coalition's difficulty in articulating a message that might make sense to a broader public. Originally, more than 10,000 foot soldiers of the global economic justice movement, from the controversial hooded Anti-Capitalist Convergence. Activists were united on a few points. There will be no peace without economic justice, and U.S. civilians will not be safe until the U.S. government stops waging and funding war on other innocents.
