50 years an activist/Comox Project 1965
Just
celebrated my 50th anniversary as an activist. August 28
was the 50th anniversary of the Comox
Project mass civil disobedience at the Comox Air Base, I was
there sitting down blocking a gate for 32 hours. This event
completely transformed my life, making me the person I am today.
This
week end Aug28-31 we had a reunion of Comox Project veterans and
about a dozen of us showed up to have a great time reconnecting,
reminiscing, discussing the import of the project, drinking wine and
beer and eating. Many thanks to Peter Light who did so much –
including building an octagon shelter and stone fire circle.
