PROTEST WEEKEND! - Third Anniversary of War Protest & Rally Collected Into

Edited on Thu Mar-16-06 07:29 AM by Skinner

THIS WEEKEND PROTEST THE WAR!

I've done my best to collect as much of the information on the organized march, rally and protests for this weekend and have listed/orgainized them below by CITY and ORGANIZATION. It has been THREE YEARS of this "cakewalk." The tide is turning but we still need to show our American faces and make our voices heard. Please do something this weekend and document what you do. Spread the word. (If you have problems with A.N.S.W.E.R., or whomever, find an alternate protest, but do something!)

Please recommend this post to the Greatest Page so that it is easily found. Post additional info here. Also, check the Activist forum and state forums for other info and posts. Thanks, folks! Stop the Bushit! Enough is enough! (Some links may not be working here, so click on the original website or DU thread link to find the info.)

FROM MOURNING TO RESISTANCE! 3 YEARS TOO MANY � STOP THE WAR!
Washington, DC, March, 20, 9 AM
The National Campaign for Nonviolent Resistance is organizing "From Mourning to Resistance," a March to the Pentagon on Monday, March 20, that will culminate in nonviolent direct action. It will begin with a 9 AM gathering near the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. The March bearing a coffin filled with names of the dead will step off at 10 AM and cross the Memorial Bridge and proceed to LBJ Memorial Grove adjacent to the Pentagon, from where nonviolent actions will commence. NCNR is inviting marchers from various antiwar groups to represent a broad spectrum of communities around the country. The march is permitted, but some participants will risk arrest by trying to deliver the coffin to Secretary of War Donald Rumsfeld or undertaking other nonviolent civil resistance actions. Please contact Max Obuszewski if you plan to be there

End the War! Drive Out the Bush Regime!

3 Years of War and Occupation - The World Can�t Wait!
End the War - Drive Out the Bush Regime!
Click here to find protests in your area this spring on the anniversary of the start of the Iraq War and on April 29

If we're going to end this war, it is going to take something radically different than putting our hopes and energies into "leaders" who in fact support the war. It will take setting into motion a different political dynamic by relying on mobilizing the independent political actions of millions of people, based on consistently sticking to principle and opposing a war that is unjust, illegitimate and immoral. Think about what it took to end the Vietnam War - massive opposition around the world and inside the US, and large-scale defection inside the military. While this is a different war in a whole different (and more dangerous) context, the example of a movement acting with a conscience and spreading throughout society is certainly something to learn from.

�The point is this: history is full of examples where people who had right on their side fought against tremendous odds and were victorious. And it is also full of examples of people passively hoping to wait it out, only to get swallowed up by a horror beyond what they ever imagined. The future is unwritten. WHICH ONE WE GET IS UP TO US.

A Call for a Week of Local Action: March 15-22, 2006

March 19th will mark the third anniversary of a war that never should have happened
-- a war based on lies that continues to devastate the lives of thousands,
both in Iraq and the United States.

United for Peace and Justice joins our partners in the global antiwar movement
in callingfor a massive outpouring of opposition to the war in Iraq.
We are urging opponents of the war to organize a wide array of events in their
hometowns for the entire week surrounding this anniversary.

Some highlights: On March 15, UFPJ will join MediaChannel to kick off the week
of peace and justice events with a National Day of Local Media Protest.
On March 16, youth and students all over the country will stand up against 3 years
of unnecessary war and its impact on their generation.
During the week leading up to the 19th, two important marches --
the Veterans and Survivors March for Peace and Justice from Mobile to New Orleans
and Peregrinacion por la Paz from Tijuana to San Francisco -- will be underway,
each dramatically demonstrating how the war in Iraq is destroying our communities at home.

March 18 Organizing Committee march18 @ ncpeacejustice.org Initiated by Fayetteville Peace With Justice and the NC Peace & Justice Coalition

On March 19, 2005, over 4,000 people marched and rallied in Fayetteville, NC, on the 2nd anniversary of the war in Iraq to support military families and veterans speaking out.
On March 18 & 19, 2006, the 3rd anniversary of the war in Iraq, plan to attend events in Fayetteville NC, a critical opportunity to show support for the men and women speaking out against the war from within the Armed Forces. Real support for the troops still means that we Bring Them Home Now!

Is The Tide Turning?

Since we protested on the second anniversary of the war in Iraq, March 19, 2005, in Fayetteville, NC, a great deal has happened. While it would be glib to say the tide has turned, Bush�s efforts to transform both the wider world and the US to conform to the dreams of neoconservatives have run into major obstacles.

Mass March/Convergence on Times Square Recruiting Station, NYC
- and dozens of cities across the country

March 18 & 19, 2006 will mark the third anniversary of the invasion of Iraq. The Troops Out Now Coalition calls on the entire antiwar community at the local and national level to rise above anything that would hinder the unity that the world and history demands of us. Together we must grasp the opportunity to help transform the turning tide against the war into a human tidal wave of antiwar resistance in the streets.

On the weekend of March 18 & 19, TONC joins with all who are calling for coordinated mass actions coast to coast and around the world. TONC proposes that the movement jointly target military recruiting stations all across the country on this weekend with coordinated protests, especially neighborhood recruiting stations in poor communities and communities of color. We can shut the war down, and the way to start is by shutting down military recruiting.

In the New York City region we call on activists to protest in the morning at the recruiting office on 125th Street in Harlem as well as other neighborhood recruiting offices.
Donate to help mobilize for March 18 & 19

In the afternoon we urge everyone to converge on Times Square, where the best known recruiting station in the country is located, for a massive rally to shut down the recruiting station and the entire area.
