We are once again decking out Streetlight Guild for Halloween, featuring a two-floor miniature Halloween village. Our largest layout yet!

Visitors and families can come tour the village on both floors for free. We’ll be giving away candy bags for all, and those who come in costume get an extra gift! We host a family-friendly exhibit that’s only up for five days, so come get your trick-or-treat on in a safe and spooky environment!

Tuesday 10/31: 5-8

Admission: Free
The first floor of Streetlight Guild is wheelchair accessible in the back of the building by lift. Just inform us ahead of or upon your arrival and we’ll assist.

Our Grassroots Emergency Election Protection Zoom #154 opens with a timely, critical report on Julian Assange from VINNIE DESTEFANO in Los Angeles.

We then join LINDA SEELEY from the Diablo Canyon Mothers for Peace on the status of the critical fight to keep that insane nuke shut.

CATHY WOLF updates us from Portland on the Pine Tree Alliance campaign to take over the electric utilities in Maine.

MAYA VON ROSSUM fills us in further with the power of her GREEN AMENDMENTS in states where environmental protection has been taken to another level.

In the second hour we plunge into the Israel-Palestine horror show with a series of heartfelt, highly intelligent, carefully limited three-minute statements.

This powerful, uniquely civil section includes deeply moving statements from nearly 20 people, including DAVID SALTMAN, LISSA MATROSS, VINNIE DESTEFANO, DOROTHY REIK, DENNIS BERNSTEIN, WENDI LEDERMAN, MIKE HERSH, LYNN FEINERMAN, JUSTIN LEBLANC, MYLA RESON, STEPHEN FRASER, DR. RUTH STRAUSS and many more.

History will not forgive those who have remained silent, exhibited or expressed ‘balanced’ positions - or worse, defended Israel’s ongoing genocide in an already besieged, impoverished and overcrowded Gaza. 

 This is not a cliché declaration, a desperate attempt aimed at jolting the world, especially the Western world, to show a degree of morality as Palestinians are dying in their thousands, as the pulverized bodies of children are scattered in every neighborhood in Gaza. 

 No, this is about history. 

UFOs are all the rage, even en vogue, especially after the Pentagon admitted it had secretly been investigating a gigantic white Tic Tac UFO, among others. The mystery is reaching near hysteria and even the Air Force may not have a clue about these things which have made many, many people exclaim “What is that?” to the sky.

We republish this updated Halloween thriller from 2013:

On an ink-stained night in late October 1973, sheriffs near Zanesville witnessed three pulsating globes over a local graveyard on the edge of town.

UFOs hovering over graveyards sounds like a pretty cool plot line. But 50 years ago, just days before thousands of kids flooded the streets for Halloween, the truth was way stranger than fiction as a UFO wave swept across Ohio in mid-to-late October of 1973.

Also known as a UFO “flap,” fear and panic spread across the colorful fall prairie. Much like how the Halloween night radio broadcast of HG Wells’ War of the World’s did in 1938.

But this was mind-bendingly real, as police from Columbus to Cincinnati fielded hundreds of calls. Local newspapers put the story on the front page.

Detective Richardson 

Shelia sat in the chair at the police station smoking a Kool cigarette. She appeared on the outside to be cool, but inside she was shaking like a leaf in a thunderstorm. Detective Richardson watched her from outside the room in the two-way mirror. He was tall and thin, black as coal and handsome. Each time Shelia took a puff off her cigarette, he took a hit off his cigar. He raked his ebony eyes from her head to her heels. 

Her brown hair was cut in a short pageboy that framed her oval shaped face, covering her dimples as she held her head down. Her skin was the color of a ripe peach with black flashing eyes that darted around the room like a doe caught in the headlights of a fast-approaching car. It was the only sign that resembled fear. The rest of her one-hundred-and-thirty-pound body was strong as steel. Her beautiful legs were crossed, and her right foot swung back and forth, but not at a fast-moving pace, but a slow deliberate one. She wore a black leather jacket, black mini skirt, red blouse, and black heels. He correctly guessed her age to be between thirty-five and forty.
