Former Mayor Rocky Anderson, who spent much of his final term crusading on national and world issues, has resurfaced to lead a grass roots human rights group, called High Road for Human Rights. Rocky's got $150,000 in seed money to build an organizing framework to take on global issues such as genocide, sexual slavery and climate change.

The most intriguing aspect to Rocky's plan is that he wants to use Eagle Forum president Gayle Ruzicka's fearsome political machine for a model.

Whatha? As Rocky told KCPW's Lara Jones:

“If we had had a national Gayle Ruzicka – with certainly, in my view, better politics; but I do have a lot of respect for what she’s done in an organizing fashion – if there had been a national organization like that during the Bosnian genocide, during the Rwandan genocide, I think these past five years we would have seen major changes.”

Rocky's will take his message to church and civic groups. If the former mayor is willing to trade out global warming for fighting pornography, Ruzicka and her mighty phone tree might even sign on.
