Rootwork Powering grassroots networks from the bottom up

Rootwork's Ivan Boothe was a founding member of this collective. Ivan handled media and design aspects for the organization's campaign of electronic civil disobedience against the electronic voting machine manufacturer Diebold in 2003, in addition to building the websites:

• Why-War.com: This website boasted an extensive custom content-management system before CMSes were in widespread use (pre-Drupal, pre-WordPress). While Ivan can't take credit for that aspect of the website, he did work hard to create a unified, accessible design for what would ultimately become a massive website archiving tens of thousands of articles, analyses and chronicles of four years of war, peace and struggles for a better world. Ivan designed the entirety of the site, including several special projects connected to Why War? campaigns.
• Galeropia.org: A journal of nonviolent theory and practice, Galeropia's design was created from scratch by Ivan, who also contributed an article.
