Letters
HAS SOJOURNERS GONE soft? That's what I wondered after I read Holly Liebowitz' article on the "Responsible Wealth" movement ("What's Right With This Picture?" January February 2001).
TOM SINE'S ARTICLE "Branded for Life" on globalization (September-October 2000) was very good.
MY THANKS TO Rose Marie Berger for her excellent article ("Don't Call Me a Saint!").

THANKS VERY MUCH for your thoughtful, comprehensive treatment of the AIDS epidemic in Africa in your July-August 2000 issue.
ROSE MARIE BERGER'S Commentary "Conduct Unbecoming" (September-October 2000) was a provocative and thoughtful piece.
RYAN BEILER'S Commentary "It's A Start" (July-August 2000) identified the members of the human family that were responsible for the IMF/World Bank protest in Seattle and D.C.
