Calling a Decolonize & (UN)Occupy Oakland Anti-War Working Group Organizing Meeting
Inviting all folks deeply concerned about wars the U.S. continues to engage in, against mostly peoples of color around the world and at home, to come to our first Anti-War Working Group meeting this Wednesday before the G.A., 5:15pm, at Oscar Grant Plaza.
We want to form a working group because we realize that war is not an “issue,” but the integral foundation of our nation: in addition to the millions of people we are killing and the immutable damage to Mother Earth, we are spending $2 billion a DAY for these atrocities, making some extremely rich, while severely hurting others.
Also, Occupy Oakland has adopted the resolution to participate in the NO WAR ON IRAN April 17th Tax Day of Global Action Against Military Spending, at the Oakland Federal Building on 1301 Clay Street.
We want to have a vibrant and meaningful action & presence, so PLEASE come to this organizing and planning action meeting!
THANKS!
In solidarity and action,
Xan Sam Joi
