Denver "community for living
revolution," Wallrich said the
institute's "creative programs
on a day-to-day basis try to
build social structures we
like -we're not waiting till after
the revolution."
Secondly, he said, "we're
trying to say 'no' to those
things we don't like by
leafletting, picketing, civil
disobedience and other
means."
The members of the
Institute say: "We act on the
assumption that the Indochina
war, racism, sexism, ecological
disaster, poverty, and
oppressive schools are not
isolated mistakes but signs of a
sick society."
Wallrich said he personally
believes in non-violent protest
but can no longer feel

people: "create tension within
people when they don't
measure up to their own hopes."
Wallrich said "the most
important single element in
American life is fear," and
named the educational system
as one of the culture's main
socializing agents.
lie told of a friend who, in
grade school, got a "D" for
drawing a cloud up-side down,
as an example of what he said
the system teaches students.
"We have to subordinate
ourselves to a system- learn to
distrust some of the most basic
dictates of our bodies."
Having stopped himself
"literally 30 pages short of a

obedience, the collar can be

include a Daily Death Toll
(DDT) where 300-400
Americans per day will
"literally lay their bodies at
Nixon's doorstep" representing
that number of deaths in the
Indochina war per day,
Wallrich said.
The "living dead" will
refuse bond, he said, so the
Washington D. C. police
department will be faced with
"mounting numbers" of
prisoners daily.
