Hello all-

I encourage you to come to this live online chat, which is happening
TONIGHT, January 21, at 8:00 PM eastern time.

This week host Marti Chitwood of WABE, Atlanta, talks with Father
Bourgeois about the School of the Americas. Bourgeois has been involved
for years in protests against the Georgia-based school, at which U.S.
military personnel train military from other countries in tactics that
many human rights groups think border on terrorism. The School of the
Americas has been accused by many of promoting inhumane military
practices in countries throughout Latin America.

By joining us, you can ask Bourgeois questions and find out more about
this controversy. Join the chat on Tuesday, January 21, at 8:00 PM
eastern time by logging on to http://soundprint.org/speakeasy. (You will
need Netscape 2.0 or higher to participate.) We look forward to seeing you
there!
