UNCA Students for a Democratic Society
Unity Statement
We as UNCA SDS are a group that is dedicated to the fight against imperialism. We are for positive social, political, and economic change. We are actively involved in fighting for this change through activism.
We stand in resolute opposition to the war in Iraq and protest the current occupation. We demand US troops out of Iraq now. We are against all imperialist wars and interventions including those in Colombia and Palestine.
We fight to create a world free of sexism, free of racism, free of heterosexism, and free of war. We are against all forms of oppression and we actively struggle both within ourselves and within our communities against these types of chauvinism and support all others who fight alongside of us.
We are for human rights, and believe that all have the right to education, housing, healthcare, clean water, and food.
We join with our brothers and sisters in campuses across the world as Students for a Democratic Society to increase all phases of democracy in our lives and to engage in the struggle for a better world. We, as youth and students, have the power to enact real social change – and we are fighting for this.
Dare to struggle – Dare to win!

We want to meet YOU! and everyone else that wants to...
Get Organized
Get Involved
Get in the Streets
UNCA SDS meets on Tuesday nights at 8:00 PM, Highsmith Union board room (HU 235) at UNCA. All are invited (and not just youth & students) to come out and get involved! We are organized with a Standing Committee, elected in mid-term each semester, which handles day to day bureaucratic tasks on behalf of UNCA SDS. We just elected a new Standing Committee - Sarah B. (Treasurer), Kati K. (Regional Coordinator/Outreach), and Charla S. (Chapter Secretary). Our work is conducted by Working Groups built around actions and events. There is always something happening and there is always a way to get involved.
Utah Phillips is very, very ill. He can no longer perform and urgently needs financial help. He has given so much to the One Big Union and progressive people everywhere. Now is the time to show him what we learned from him and to put into practice the solidarity he taught us.
I.W.W. Musician, Singer, Poet, Writer, and, most of all Organizer - Utah Phillips has spent his life uplifting the spirits of all struggling against the bosses to build a better world. At all his concerts he had it stipulated that wobblies would be present to fundraise and organize.
He has been the voice for "...all those thousands of unnamed wobblies buried in unmarked graves throughout the west." Don't let that voice go unanswered.
Cards, messages and money can be sent to: UTAH PHILLIPS BOX 1235 NEVADA CITY, CA 95959
The UFCW Scholarship Program application will become available in one week.
Based on our research among UFCW members, scholarship programs have tremendous value for young workers. Redesigned for 2008, the UFCW Scholarship can now be utilized to better serve our members and act as a tool to organize.
Several scholarships of up to $8,000 will be awarded to UFCW members and their dependents. The scholarships are limited to UFCW members who have been in good standing since January 14, 2007.
The application will be available online only from January 15-March 15, 2008. For complete eligibility requirements and information on how to apply, please visit www.myufcw.org
Please go to my page and listen to some of my songs...Many of them highlight the ideas of our movement, especially "(Peace) In America." If you like them, please pass the songs along to your friends!
Asheville LETS (Local Exchange Trading System) is a credit-based exchange network in which members can acquire or provide goods and services without currency. Unlike traditional trade, individuals involved in a transaction need not directly exchange services. Instead, each member is given an account and transactions are recorded as credits or debits. System credits represent service provided to the community while debits represent service received – and a commitment to provide future service of equal value to others.
Asheville LETS is already up and running but is scheduled to publicly launch on June 9th (details to come). To get involved now, new members will need to attend an orientation.
Next Member Orientation

There are two G8 Info tour presentations set for Olympia both on the night of March 26th, 2007.
1. Traditions Café 4-6p
2. Olympia Free School 7-9p
If you are planning on attending the G8 conference in Heiligendamm, Germany it is strongly recommended that you attend both presentations. Seattle dates are forthcoming keep checking our site at http://replacementsneeded.com/id56.html for upcoming dates in the Pacific Northwest.
ATTENTION ALL WHO SUPPORT OUR WORK here at Replacements Needed & PeaceGuard. We need your involvement today!
The PeaceGuard Northwest is sending a small group of street medics to the G8 Conference in Heiligendamm, Germany June 6th, 2007 to June 8th, 2007 and we need your help. We are asking that our supporters help sponsor us in this endeavor. Also during the months of June through September 10th Mr. Hays will be going to Mexico and several islands in the Caribbean conducting audio/video interviews concerning the influence of the G8 upon that region. This is an expensive and dangerous endeavor and one that is vitally important. These interviews will be shared with many activists groups at home and abroad and will help expand our knowledge of how the G8 and our own actions are impacting the world. If you want to help sponsor this trip or are part of a group who may be able to help do so please respond by email with your contact information if you plan on making a contribution to peaceguard@replacementsneeded.com
Thank you so much for joining us on this important and necessary journey. Without your generous support we would not be able to take our activities outside the borders of our great nation and to let the world know that we are not sitting idle while they plot and plunder the very planet that we must ALL share.
PeaceGuard Northwest and Replacements Needed thank you for your support.
