|  | Pacifism and Pathology in the American Left by Ward Churchill
Recorded before a packed and fired up crowd at the AK Press warehouse, Churchill encourages activists to act: If you are actually in solidarity with people suffering, do something tangible to make it stop. Prayer vigils are real nice, and I like lit candles in the night as much as anyone else. But it`s never ever in the history of humanity been known to stop a bullet. It`s never been known to feed a child. It`s never been known to have the least swaying effect on those in power. In the aftermath of 9-11, Churchill argues that we should not foreclose any tactical option in pursuit of changing the dynamics of power. And we must understand the choice of violence as a tactic by those who do not have the resources to fight battles in Congress, the courtroom, and the media--because they are literally fighting for their lives.
