* Ex-Justice Dept. Attorneys Accuse Bush Admin of Restricting African
American Vote to Favor Republicans *

Another scandal is brewing inside Alberto Gonzales's Justice Department.
Former Justice Department attorneys have publicly accused the Bush
administration of politicizing the department's Civil Rights Division which
was formed 50 years ago to protect the voting rights of African-Americans.
According to a recent report by the McClatchy newspapers, the Bush
administration has pursued an aggressive legal effort to restrict voter
turnout in key battleground states in ways that favor Republican political
candidates. We¹re joined by Joseph Rich, the former head of the civil rights
division of the Justice Department, and Bertha Lewis, Executive director of
New York Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.

"The world is seemingly full of disconnected crises, but Rob Kall begs to differ. An exceptional pattern thinker, he connects a range of contemporary challenges through a framework of bottom-up solutions in a world dominated by top-down thinking. Mining extensive interviews with thought leaders and exploring an eclectic mix of leading-edge ideas, Bottom-Up describes a variety of latent and emergent characteristics of an evolutionary paradigm shift that's changing the world. Whether your focus is in business, leadership, activism, or organizations, Kall offers a practical conceptual map and toolset to engage the planetary evolution taking place all around us. If you want to make a difference and need inspiration for how to participate in this global transformation, there is plenty in this book to draw from."
