When the mouse had no cat: notes on the April 8 march
It was disappointing to see the Counterpoint Journal publish “Police Department Breaks Up Protest Against Police Brutality” as the article covering the 8 April 2010 march. Since its inception in 2009, the paper has set itself apart by attempting to provide the fullest understanding of conditions, events, and decisions at the Evergreen State College, in the city of Olympia, and for the world. Such a wonderful paper was and is a direct challenge—as its name implies—to the trashy, shallow, poorly edited Cooper Point Journal (CPJ). In that regard, the CxPJ has been a success.
