People's Assembly Against the War -Free Society Collective

April 07, 2003

Saturday, April 5
2 to 4 p.m. at Barre's Old Labor Hall

On March 20, the day after the U.S. government
launched its preemptive strike against Iraq, millions
of people took to the streets worldwide in protest.
Here in Vermont, in addition to demonstrations, about
250 people gathered to reclaim some of their political
sovereignty at the People's Assembly for Peace,
passing resolutions for the immediate cessation of
war, the impeachment of G. W. Bush, and condemning the
trade embargo against the people of Iraq (see full
text of resolutions below). On April 5, we will build
on the work of the first People's Assembly by holding
an open forum on strategies for opposition to the war.
Spread the word, and come prepared with your energy
and ideas for participatory, creative, and diverse
noncompliance with the war against Iraq.

Agenda:
An open forum on the question of:
Where does resistance to the war go from here?

Where:
Old Labor Hall, 46 Granite Street, Barre
(heading south into Barre on Main Street,
Granite Street is on the right at Chittenden Bank)
