Direct Activism This century has been marked by extraordinary examples of direct activism by groups and individuals for social change. The list is endless but includes: womens suffrage, segregation, atomic energy policy, Vietnam War, Gulf War Syndrome, land mine proliferation, worker's rights, governmental abuse of power, treatment of native Americans, etc. Let there be no mistake. The issues above are of great importance, even life and death, but none is a match in impact to the extraterrestrial presence - none. It should surprise no one, therefore, that such activism is growing regarding the matter of the extraterrestrial presence and government secrecy on the subject. Such activities have taken place since 1947, but the 1990s can be said to be the coming of age of direct engagement on this subject. Demands for documentation via the Freedom of Information Act are now commonplace. Sit-ins have occurred in front of the White House, the Washington Post, Government Accounting Office and elsewhere. A peoples march on Area 51 outside of Las Vegas, Nevada is slated for June 6, 1998. Fax and e-mail blitzes of NASA, television news programs, Congressional committee chairs, and local politicians occur often. Welcome to the political hot potato of all time. If you missed the 60s by virtue of birth or timidity, dont let this opportunity pass. Engage. Citizen Hearing, a project of PRG and X-PPAC, will create a week-long event wherein former members of the House and Senate take the testimony of 30+ government/agency witnesses to events and evidence. The motto is, "if Congress will not do its job, the people will." Citizens Against UFO Secrecy has filed FOIA requests for government records on evidence and references. Coalition for Freedom of Information, backed by the SciFi Channel, will create a Washington, DC based effort to advocate for the release of documents and educate the public. Disclosure Project has sought out and provided briefings on extraterrestrial phenomena evidence to politicians, military officials, intelligence agencies, think tanks, UN officials, and the press. It is developing a private disclosure scenario to place government witness testimony on the record in comprehensive fashion. Extraterrestrial Phenomena Political Action Committee (X-PPAC) - the first political action committee in history created to pursue the politics of UFOs/Disclosure and end the cover-up of the facts regarding an extraterrestrial presence in our world, now.
