I am an active member in this group called FOR (Fellowship of Reconciliation) which is the headquarters for the The Largest, Oldest Interfaith Peace Organization in the United States is located right near my house (5-10 minutes away). Anyways I am also a member of http://www.rocklandaction.org and the rockland coalition for democracy and freedom. Anyways I am trying to get even more active lately but was wondering if anybody else is in any activist organizations?

And if you are in New york area I can help you get information about joining these organizations.

Why does everyone have to call hanging out with your one or two politically minded friends a "party" or political organization of some sort. You are all probably old for tree houses.

you forgot the "enough" in the last part of the sentance, I took down my treehouse 4 years ago, and a political organization must start somewhere! Plus its not with "one or two of my friends" its with 10 or 20 kids from my area. :knife:

i'm an inactive member of the phoenix anarchist coalition, and tucsons resist and refuse. i usually just go to the marches because meeting almost allways conflict with my work schedule. as for resist and refuse, i stopped participating when they told me their next action was going up to all the members of the armed forces on the u of a campus and and asking them how many babies they've killed. that was just lame.
