I misplaced the handouts we received on Wednesday and they are not listed under the “handouts” section of the webpage, so I will have to edit this later and re-do the citations. I suck for actually being disorganized for once in my life. It figures they had to be homework-related. … It’s going to be a long night.
[Edit: Yay! I found the handouts! I'm an idiot.. They were right in front of me.]

“Mamas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Soldiers”
Summary:
In the article “Mamas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Soldiers,” Cindy Sheehan takes a strong stand on the anti-war side. She spends the bulk of her article discussing why the mothers of our country should not let their children go off into war. Sheehan finds war to be dishonest and a waste of human lives. She also stresses that the mothers of our country do not raise their children to be war criminals. Sheehan ends her article pleading to not let our babies grow up to be soldiers.
Review:
I found that this article resembles the speeches in our Power of Nonviolence books. It is very wordy and I had to reread a few passages to get the right idea. It was based mainly on her opinion on the situation and what she perceived of the whole war situation. In a way, I didn’t really enjoy it because it was not as informative as I had hoped for.

Summary:
(This website had been compiled from several sources and did not have one specific author.) This website begins by introducing Cindy Sheehan and giving some background information. It then goes on to describe her campaign against the war. This website gives reactions by the white house and congress. It covers the chronology of her activism in detail. This website also gives a tremendous amount of links to other sources, including speeches and interviews.
Review:
I wasn’t sure how to cover this since it consists of information from all over the place, but it gives the most information in one convenient location. I really liked how it went into detail on each of the sections and then gives many, many links and references further down the page. I have a feeling that this will be very helpful with finding sources for my paper.
"Cindy Sheehan." Who2? Biographies. Who2?, 2006. Answers.com 13 Nov. 2006. http://www.answers.com/topic/cindy-sheehan-1
Summary:
This website gives a fairly brief biography of anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan. It begins by describing how she was introduced into the media. It continues by discussing how she became more and more popular with time. It briefly mentions an arrest, followed by an encounter with President Bush. It ends by mentioning that she occasionally writes pieces for a filmmaker.
Review:
I found this website to be pretty helpful; however, I was disappointed with the length and wish it had continued and gave more information. It was all well worded and easily read. There are also some links posted about anti-war organizations, which may help me out further down the line.
