 parliament\; as soon as the members are elected\, the people is enslaved

 ll from the Climate Justice International to convene participatory direc
 t democracy <strong>People's Assemblies</strong> in the Square and elsew
 here\, these are exciting times for those who would actively create a po
 pular\, truly democratic\, and ecologically harmonious future for humani
