On a day after we lost habeas, the Webb amendment, Reid-Feingold, Levin-Reid, and the Moveon condemnation, Louisiana is seeing a massive civil rights march take place on the Jena Six. I haven't focused on it today because of the massive losses on the war, but it's worth noting that today is a national day of action.
In the comments to Matt Stoller's Post "Black Billionaires and the CBC" (http://openleft.com/...) Matt was asked about why there has been so little mainstream blog attention given to the disaster playing out right now in Jena, Louisiana. Matt responded:
"If someone gives me a strategy and a reason to post on something progressive, I often do."

I don't really do strategy, but I thought I'd give him a reason.
