Info on the mobilization this weekend. Get on the pog bus to protest the War, Imf, World Bank, and the connections between the three.
Greetings,
POG will be traveling to DC this weekend as part of a major mobilization against the War and its connections to the IMF, WB, and School of the America�s. We are organizing transportation and housing (at a friendly church) for anyone who�s interested. We will be leaving Friday evening and returning late Sunday. The cost of the trip is tentatively 30$, but this will probably be lowered. The two major events in DC are a mass march against the war on Saturday and a Sunday mass march to the World Bank-IMF buildings in DC. In between are concerts, shows, puppets, teach-ins, and ths sights and sounds of DC.
Please email us (pog@mutualaid.org) to reserve a spot for the trip and as usual feel free to ask many questions.
As the Bush administration continues to wage war against Iraq, extending its military and political influence to every corner of the globe, millions are resisting. On April 10-15, thousands will gather in Washington to say no to US military and economic intervention! We are making connections between the war in Iraq and US military involvement in Latin America because we know that Bush�s war didn�t start with Afghanistan, nor will it end with Iraq.
This is a crucial time for us to link the issues of Military and Economic Intervention and bring the Peace movement together with the Movement for economic justice. From Latin America to the Middle East, we will stand up against US intervention and build a movement without borders!
Economic oppression and military repression are flip sides of the globalization coin. The economic rape of the poor that accompanies corporate globalization could not stand without the repressive military apparatus that brutalizes those who rise up to resist.
