Nashua, NH – The Free State Project is pleased to announce bestselling author Naomi Wolf will be the keynote speaker at the fifth annual NH Liberty Forum, being held February 24-27 at the Crowne Plaza in Nashua.
The interview can be seen
here and begins at the 9 minute 30 second mark.
FSP Participants have been conducting marijuana civil disobedience in Keene, NH for several days straight by peacefully smoking marijuana at 4:20 in
Keene’s Central Square, and at the
Keene Police Station. Hundreds of people have participated and have so far been free from arrest by police and gained much press attention. To follow this story, visit
FreeKeene.com.
Please note that, as discussed in our
disclaimer, The Free State Project does not organize or take a position on any of this, but is simply reporting on press about us and the activity of participants.
Read what happened when a yoga for peace gathering was denied by the town selectmen in
The Union Leader and the
Associated Press.
The original event is covered
here and the outcome is covered
here.
As a result, over 800 people visited our website and around a dozen
joined the Free State Project on the spot. This is in addition to his
earlier endorsement in 2002.
The Boston Phoenix has published a lengthy
article about the Free State Project. While good on the whole, some important corrections/clarifications are that the FSP is not a Libertarian (Party) organization, we do not intend to "colonize" New Hampshire, movers can live anywhere in the state and there are several popular areas, not just Keene, and four movers have been elected to the NH State House, not just one.
FSP Participant and NH State Representative Cal Pratt is interviewed regarding the FSP and William Kostric. A video report and news article can be found
here.
FSP Participant and mover Mark Edge, co-host of the syndicated radio show
Free Talk Live discusses with the
The Tenth Amendment Center his take on the Free State Project in New Hampshire as decentralization in practice, moving towards smaller government on a state level, spreading liberty around the country by example, the insanity of violent response to activists by the federal government, the people of New Hampshire as having a streak of individualism and resistance to government encroachments, the state legislature in New Hampshire, liberty-loving lobbyists, the
New Hampshire Liberty Alliance, Free Talk Live’s growing syndication, and more.
