Best International Activist
Rahul Mahajan
UT graduate student Mahajan is well-known about town for his indefatigable anti-war activism, especially against the devastating economic sanctions imposed on Iraq, as well as U.S. and "allied" plans for renewed war on that country. Now he's getting nationally known as the Green Party candidate for governor and the author of a book, The New Crusade: America's War on Terrorism, that swims against the prevailing stream of militarism and high-tech weaponry as the answer to all our problems. He may be shouting in the wilderness -- but perhaps only the lonely voices can reach beyond our borders and save us from ourselves.
