I haven't edited Wikipedia pages before so I just wanted to alert others there is a bad hyperlink under Danny Glover's film credits... specifically: Grand Canyon (2001), links to the literal Grand Canyon, not the 2001 film. Thanks to whomever can make the change!

[edit] communit,st

It keeps popping up that Glover is a communist... I can find no reference for that, and I suspect people are just angry because of his association with Hugo Chavez. Please cite a source or stop it... WP is not your soapbox. --Graham^talk/mail/e 17:50, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] criticism for appearing with Chavez

OK, I can't find a single non-right-wing source of any criticism for Glover's appearance with Chavez. (Sure, FOX News dinged him, but they pretty much criticize everyone left of center.) If you want to make your "across the spectrum" claim, provide a citation. --Graham^talk/mail/e 18:11, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Removal of category/Dispute

A user:Grazon recent removed Category:American anti Iraq War activists, citing that hes against all wars. furthermore he was been removing LOTS of people from there categories.Qrc2006 03:04, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

He did it again, this time he cited that hes against all wars, so what, i can be against war 1 and war 2, that doesnt mean i dont belong in both categories just becuasue im against more then one.

* A) Believe that the Iraq War was illegal and/or immoral from the beginning; or

• B) Believe that the Iraq War is being waged incompetently or immorally, and have become publicly known as critics of the war or the justifications used to launch it.[1]

this is the criteria for inclusion in this cateogry, he clearly fits it. end of discussion. this guy keeps on removing people from this cateogry for dubious reasons i dont know what his motivations are, but theyre not constructive, i think he should be blocked again.

[edit] "Conservative media"?

There is a line in this wiki that states:

"His role in this capacity and resulting interaction with Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez have drawn criticism for Glover from the conservative media."

Then it goes on to quote a Fox News Channel story. Firstly, Chavez' and Glover's relationship has drawn criticism from all media and secondly, Fox News Channel is not a conservative news channel, contrary to what some say.

Folks, please leave the editorials out when you edit a wiki.

Does Glover share Chavez' racial views?Scott Adler 23:17, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Black Students Union

Is there any attribution to Glover's membership or leadership in the "Black Students Union" of San Francisco State? It's a very, very serious charge and should be either attributed or removed. Scott Adler 23:17, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

I just found it here [2]. I will put it (or a better reference) in the article soon. Garion96 (talk) 23:19, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
