About [Edit]
The Not In Our Name Project is a national network of individuals and
organizations committed to standing with the people of the world. As the Not
in Our Name Pledge of Resistance states, "we believe that as people living
in the United States it is our responsibility to resist the injustices done
by our government, in our names." Our mission is to build, strengthen and
expand resistance to stop the U.S. government's entire course of war and
repression being waged in the name of "fighting terrorism." This course has
three main components:
The War on the World - The U.S. government has engaged in preemptive
military actions and wars and brazenly states its determination to "change
regimes" where it sees fit, promising wars that will last a generation and
supplying arms and aid used to terrorize people around the world.
Detentions, Deportations and Roundups of Immigrants - The U.S. government
has effectively stripped immigrants, especially Arabs, Muslims and South
Asians, of rights, in laws and acts reminiscent of the very tyranny from
which our government is supposedly liberating people.
Police State Restrictions - The U.S. government has instituted stark new
repressive measures, such as the U.S. PATRIOT and Homeland Security Acts,
designed to create fear, intimidate opposition and silence dissent.
