Title A name given to the resource Madison Area Peace Coalition E-mails Description An account of the resource The Madison Area Peace Coalition (MAPC) formed fourteen days after the September 11 attacks to oppose (among other goals) the use of U.S. military, economic, or political force – whether direct or proxy, overt or covert -- "that violates the sovereignty or human rights of any nation or people." The Archive has assembled here e-mails exchanges from MAPC dating from the group's founding until late November 2001.

With all due respect, the folks on the co-ordinating committee may not be aware of this, but I would like to note that the action committee has a plan for emergency actions, including each of us having specific jobs assigned for every detail. If someone unilaterally comes up with a whole new plan at the last moment, that means starting over from scratch to (1) discuss the plan and (2) assign people to implement it--all within a few hours. In my opinion: huge waste of time. If we are to have emergency actions (which I understand is an if) we need to stick to the plan--or make a new one *in advance*--so that the only thing left to do when the action is called, is implement it. I am not attached to the existing plan, but whatever the plan is we shouldn't try to alter it at the last second. Discussion? Disagreement? Pies in the face? My intent is not to offend but to be efficient and avoid saddling any individual with an overwhelming burden of organizing everything. Regarding the very concept of emergency actions, I think the AC was thinking about events that would be so overwhelmingly dramatic/traumatic that there would be an overwhelming desire to get out there and do something. I definitely don't think anyone was imagining that there should be emergency actions at every turn. Probably we should remove "invasion" from the list of actions and stick to (1) extension of bombing to a new country, (2) murder or arson in our community or (3) another massive violent attack on US soil with instant mass casualties. I'm also open to dropping the whole concept. Whatever you all think. X September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.
