Excellent article with resources for attempting to talk in high schools about militarization of our society!!!

The Resistance Center for Peace and Justice in Northampton, MA, has just released the third edition of its Military Recruitment Report. The Center says it is the only report of its kind in New England. I think it is a unique study in the U.S. The report, based on analysis of public records and questions to public high schools in Western Massachusetts, grades the schools on how open they are to military recruiters.
