Friday, May 16 is Iraq Moratorium #9
By Leslie Cagan, National Coordinator, UFPJ
Since last fall, on the third Friday of every month, people in cities and towns around the country have organized protest activities and other events as part of the nationally coordinated Iraq Moratorium. This coming Friday, May 16th, is Iraq Moratorium #9.
First, we want to congratulate the local organizers who keep pulling together these activities. And we also want to congratulate the national organizers who have maintained and expanded this effort, including the Iraq Moratorium website at: http://IraqMoratorium.org
Second, we want to encourage more local groups to get involved. There is still time to organize something in your community, at your school or workplace, or anywhere you might be able to reach people.
You can find reports from past Moratorium actions, as well as listings for events already planned for this Friday, at the Iraq Moratorium website. Reading through all of this will inspire you and might give you an idea of something you can do as part of this project. If you do plan something, please be sure to list it on the calendar.
Finally, if you are planning something for May 16, try to take some photos or video. Then we hope you'll take a few minutes to go back to the site and post a report on what happened -- not just numbers but anecdotes, descriptions of who came, etc. If you have them, include photos or video. What you do, and the stories you tell, can inspire others for future actions.
Again, the website for the Iraq Moratorium is http://IraqMoratorium.org - be sure to check it out!
