Old folds BOSS Archives rubber-stamp at upper right margin else Near Fine. Attractive broadside issued by the US arm of The Fellowship of Reconciliation FOR a religious nonviolent group founded in 1915 by 68 pacifists who claim to be "the largest oldest interfaith peace and justice organization in the United States." The contents reproduced from their appearance in the New York Times June 16 1968 and Los Angeles Times June 23 1968 came closely on the heels of Robert F. Kennedy's assassination. Beside photographic portraits of Kennedy Martin Luther King Jr. and John F. Kennedy the broadside calls the abolition of small artms and for American citizens to disarm themselves: "But Americans have permitted a climate of violence to grow in their society. They have allowed advertising to fill their television screens with simple-minded glamorization of violence and pressure groups to block legislation that would make it harder for sick men to possess the weapons of murder." Listed are an "honor roll of self-disarmers" suggestions for how one could get on the honor roll and a mail-in pledge card at lower right corner.

1842réf. 86607Newcastle & London: J. Barker / Charles Gilpin 1842. First Edition. First impression. Penny pamphlet 19cm x 12cm. Sewn self-wrappers; 24pp. Sewing perished; mild wear at corners; still complete and Very Good. Publisher's imprint printed vertically at bound edge of first page of text. A tract on pacifist non-resistance with strong anti-statist content - a clear presentation of the proto-anarchist Christianity of militant pacifist-abolitionists of the era of which Wright and Barker were exemplars. Wright 1797-1870 a defrocked Presbyterian minister would become one of the most radical American voices for abolitionism and pacifism in the years before the Civil War even being ejected from the American Anti-Slavery Society for espousing too radical an abolitionist viewpoint. Joseph Barker 1806-1875 a British controvertialist clergyman who like Wright had been rejected by his denomination was in many ways Wright's analogue in Great Britain espousing a militant interpretation of Christ's teachings that repudiated all entities that survived upon compulsion of their members - including enslavement marriage most religion and government itself. Barker would later relocate to the United States where he became a leader of the abolitionist cause in Ohio before returning to England just prior to the outbreak of the Civil War. The present pamphlet very scarce; not traced in commerce with only five physical holdings noted in OCLC. J. Barker / Charles Gilpin unknown
1972réf. 61845Nyack NY: CONAME ca 1972. 5 manila envelopes 12"x9" with printed labels containing a total of 29 reprinted articles and 6 introductory sheets. All housed within large manila envelope 13"x9.5" labeled in manuscript. External envelope rubbed and worn with some dustsoil: Good only. Internal manila envelopes slightly rubbed with minor rust to metal closures; enclosed articles with mild foxing and browning one or two bent corners only gently rubbed: overall Very Good. An information packet distributed by the Committee On New Alternatives in the Middle East CONAME a pacifist organization founded in 1969 by a group of Jewish-Americans among them Noam Chomsky. Their aim was to pursue peace in the Middle East by promoting peaceful dialogue in the U.S. "Founding director Allan Solomonow described it as 'a forum and a resource for peace-seeking alternatives to the currently internecine status quo; we are the gadfly to the consciences of the resigned of the apathetic of those mired in propaganda and dogma.' To that end the organization's principal work was educational: disseminating articles touring speakers and organizing Middle East delegations to mitigate "the pervasive polarization of opinion that has characterized the Middle East crisis'". This is one of the informational packets CONAME assembled and distributed probably in 1972. It contains reprints of previously published articles dating from 1969-1972 organized in envelopes labeled as follows: 1. Who Are the Palestinians 6 articles 2. The Israeli Peace Movement 4 3. Israel's Arab Minority 5 4. Alternatives for Middle East Peace 9 5. In Search of Middle East Information 5 Article authors include Edward Said Alan Dershowitz Ahmed Khalidi Atallah Mansour M. Cherif Bassiouni Nora Levin Edward Said Shlomo Avineri Amos Kenan Siach Amnon Rubinstein Israel Shahak and Sabri Jiryis. The packets also contain copies of a few periodicals e.g. New Outlook and The Middle East News Review. Though this example equivocates about possible resolutions to the conflict and prioritizes providing background information CONAME eventually advocated for Israeli-Palestianian dialogue and a two-state solution. The organization collaborated with other American pacifist organizations such as the Jewish Peace Fellowship War Resisters League Quaker Action Group and Women Strike for Peace. However after the founding of Breira and the Fellowship of Reconciliation CONAME's Executive Director and Assistant Director departed and the organization dissolved in 1975. See the article on CONAME on btvshalom. org the website for the Jewish Alliance for Justice & Peace. An ephemeral and uncommon survival; we have traced no similar examples. #61845. CONAME unknown
réf. 80612N.p. n.d. Hopedale: 1848. 16mo 15cm. Sewn self-wrappers; 12pp. A worn copy stain on first leaf bleeds with diminishing effect through entire text; marginal loss to final leaf not costing text; still complete and Good. Issued without imprint but likely printed at Adin Ballou's Hopedale Community where Wright was a resident but see note below. Date of composition is given as Jan. 24 1848 at close of text; this pamphlet was likely printed soon after that date as Wright's sequel titled The Employers of Dick Crowninshield was composed in March of the same year and makes reference to the current work in its foreword. In typical Wright fashion a contrarian point of view - here radical non-resistance - is stretched to its logical limits by unflattering analogy. Wright the idiosyncratic radical abolitionist feminist pacifist freethinker and proto-anarchist compares Zachary Taylor's actions at the Battle of Monterey to nothing more than murder for hire building his analogy around the notorious 1830 murder of a Salem ship's-captain Joseph White by a paid assassin the Dick Crowninshield of the title. After laying out the details of each man's purported deeds including a quite lurid account of the Battle of Monterey Wright follows with a long list of "The Differences" between them concluding in the end that there is no difference in kind: ".The assassin killed a man whom he knew to be innocent; the soldier did the same.The assassin killed the innocent at the instigation of his employers; so did the soldier.The assasin entered into a contract with his employers voluntarily; so did the soldier." etc. In the end the only noteworthy difference is that "Zachary's deeds are said by the priests and churches to be God-approved and Christ-like; the assassin's are denounced by them as evil and only evil." At least three separate editions of the pamphlet were issued with priority likely as follows: 1 a Hopedale imprint issued with a full title page dated 1848 in which the title subject's name is misspelled "Crowningshield;" 2 the current edition undated issued with drop-title the subject's name corrected to "Crowninshield"; no imprint clearly from a different setting of type from the first - but based on close comparison with digital sources likely from the same font of type as the first hence our suggestion of Hopedale as the likely place of printing for this edition; 3 a stated Second Edition undated published in Edinburgh probably the same year. All editions are uncommon; 4 locations noted in OCLC for this edition. No copies traced in commerce. unknown
