On the issue of his true name, Tre says "the media is obliged to use my legal name of Tre Arrow. Check the Multnomah County Courthouse's records and you will see the government is lying to you about my name." Tre went on to talk his supporters, the media, and the general public. "I want folks to know I am committed to a fast and I have not eaten any of the poisonous food provided to me of late, in solidarity for those suffering from the lack of justice in the U.S. Injustice system, and in protest of this incarceration. "The government and media focus on me as an individual when they should be focussing on U.S. Corporations' pollution of and ravaging of our environment. Why can't the media give us stories on slaughterhouses, Hanford, and the continuing practice of clearcutting? "I encourage folks that the time is now for folks to stand up and put a stop to the injustices to our basic human rights and to earth mother, our only human home." Tre regrets that the U.S. government is preventing him from talking to you all directly, and asks you to do what you can to help defeat the injustices imposed on us. Contact: Stu Sugarman blc at hevanet.com phone: 503.234.2694 Tre Arrow Defense Fund e-mail: truth2power at griffinsforge.com The Speaking Truth To Power Defense Fund announces its transition to the Tre Arrow Defense Fund. The Speaking Truth To Power Legal Defense Fund was established in the wake of Tre Arrow's 2002 grand jury indictment. We felt it was important that there be a defense fund in place in the event that Tre was ever arrested. For a number of logistical reasons we could not, at that time, name the fund after him. For the past two years we have worked with the Portland chapter of the National Lawyers Guild, who has held funds in trust for us, and we are eternally grateful for their assistance, as well as their tireless efforts for civil rights After speaking with Tre Friday evening, we agreed that it is time to have the fund in his name, we are in the process of making this transition, and hope to have everything in place for our April 4th benefit. Donations made to Speaking Truth Power will be transferred to the new account Tre was concerned that unethical people might claim to be raising funds on his behalf (it would not be the first time) and wanted all his supporters to know that THIS IS HIS ONLY AUTHORIZED DEFENSE FUND, and that every cent of it goes to defending him, Period. He also wanted to reiterate his gratitude to all for their love and support, and to thank folks who cared enough to contribute even before he was in custody. Now that he is in custody, raising money for his defense is critically important: his defense team is going to need a phenomenal amount of money in order to mount an effective defense. The new website will be trearrow.org, we have reserved the name and will be putting up the new website soon. We will post and distribute updated information about the fund as changes are finalized. Thanks again for your continued support. homepage: http://www.griffinsforge.com/truth2power address: 125 NE 83rd Ave. Portland Oregon 97220 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - F R O N T L I N E - N E W S Now With 5600+ Subscribers! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Would you like to Unsubscribe or Subscribe to the Frontline-News mailing list? https://lists.resist.ca/mailman/listinfo/frontline-news - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - For general questions, feedback and requests: frontline at rocketmail.com - Frontline Information Service Administrator: frontline at rocketmail.com Direct Action Frontline Information Service bringing you uncensored news from around the world since 1994. --------------------- __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
