SECOND SECESSIONIST CONVENTION

OCTOBER 3-4, CHATANOOGA, TN http://middleburyinstitute.org/secessionconvention2007.html

 

September 4, 2007

The Second Secessionist Convention, cosponsored by the League of the South and the Middlebury Institute, will be held in Chatanooga, TN, on October 3-4 this year.

 

At the moment there are delegates pledged from 14 secessionist organizations in North America, from Hawaii to Georgia, and 2 from Europe, plus a dozen observers and four members of the press. (This year, unlike last year at the first Secessionist Convention, the press is welcome.)

 

The convention, which begins at 7 p.m. October 3, will feature reports from secessionist delegates throughout the next day, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., followed by a wide-ranging discussion of strategies, recruitment, legal tactics, and other issues of concern to the movement.

 

The convention will be held at the Marriott Convention Center Hotel in downtown Chatanooga (tel. 423-756-0002).

One Nation Indivisible?

One Nation Indivisible? A Study of Secession and the Constitution

 

_________________________________________________________________________________________

To the People of the various States:

AFTER an unequivocal experience of the inefficiency of the subsisting federal government, you are called upon to deliberate on a new form of government for the various united states. The subject speaks its own importance; comprehending in its consequences nothing less than the disbanding of the UNION, the safety and welfare of the parts of which it is composed, the fate of an empire in the making. It has been frequently remarked that it seems to have been reserved to the people of this country, by their conduct and example, to decide the important question, whether societies of men are really capable or not of establishing good government from reflection and choice, or whether they are forever destined to depend for their political constitutions on accident and force. If there be any truth in the remark, the crisis at which we are arrived may with propriety be regarded as the era in which that decision is to be made; and a wrong election of the part we shall act may, in this view, deserve to be considered as the general misfortune of mankind.
