Anonymous Activism

Three national nonprofit organizations (the Government Accountability Project, the Project on Government Oversight, and the Public Employees for Environmental Responsiblity) have joined forces to publish the Art of Anonymous Activism: Serving the Public While Surviving Public Service. This sounds like a must read for all public employees! Unfortunately, this book may have come too late to be of any value for the 170,000 Federal employees slated to be transferred to the new Department of Homeland Security. They will lose whistleblower protections they previously enjoyed under the Whistleblower Protection Act. Does the name Coleen Rowley still ring a bell with anyone?
