Corporate Watch's Prague: The Aftermath

The Direct Action Network (DAN) The Direct Action Network was created in Seattle as an unprecedented collaboration of activists and organizing groups, with one shared desire - to actually SHUT DOWN THE WTO! Skilled banner hangers joined with youth groups, labor organizers and many others to form lockdowns and a vast human chain which surrounded the WTO's meeting place in Seattle and really prevented WTO delegates from entering their first day of meetings on November 30. The DAN website is hosted by one of DAN's early organizing groups - Art & Revolution. Images posted there reflect the many groups and individuals who contributed to the direct actions and massive civil disobedience that shut down the WTO. Recently many of these same people collaborated again to bring international attention to the meetings of the IMF and World Bank in DC and in Prague:
the Ruckus Society
Rainforest Action Network
and Project Underground.
