Gordon Soderberg from New Orleans Voices for Peace has posted a video of the wrecking at Rene Petersen’s house in Gentilly last month, featuring interviews with members of Iraq Veterans Against the War, and lots of wrecking action footage of IVAW and Arabi Wrecking Krewe folks.
Please check it out.
Update: I’m getting a lot of hits from people linking to the video through my page, and I just want to reiterate that the original source for the video can be found at the New Orleans Voices for Peace site here: http://www.neworleansvfp.org/node/3958. Definitely follow that link, they’ve got lots more there about the war, IVAW, and the rebuilding of the Gulf Coast.

Thank you for this, Ray. I’ll be donating and posting the IVAW website on TM. This video needs more widespread exposure, for sure!
Wow, that’s great, and that Michael Franti song that starts it off is awesome.
I’m gonna link to both gordon’s and your posts, brutha.
