On August 5, a group of Axis of Justice volunteers went to the PATH center for our first assignment to feed the homeless. It was a wonderful experience in which we, at Axis of Justice, will continue to do on a weekly basis.

My first brush with political organizing happened when I was in high school. I was on the school newspaper, “Drops of Ink”, at Libertyville Public High School.

The first time I heard of the Clash was in high school. I was working on the school newspaper, and one day a fellow named Dave Vogel came in with a copy of London Calling that he was showing off to anybody who was willing to listen. I thought the cover of the album was really cool, and asked him “is it heavy metal?” He said “no, but it’s really great.”
