In the U.S. the ANSWER Coalition has called for Global Days of Action with nationally coordinated local protests from March 18-20. On March 18 there will be mass protests in San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York and many other places. In Chicago there will be a day of action with community marches, a rally in Union Park, a Festival for Civil Rights in the evening along Michigan Avenue and many other actions.
ANSWER Chicago, in conjunction with globally coordinated local actions, is calling for people to Converge on Federal Plaza in Chicago at 12 noon on Saturday, March 18.
On the 3rd anniversary of the war, let’s send a clear message to the Bush Administration, Congress, Wall Street and the Pentagon that we will continue to resist their unpopular war. The political climate and popular opinion in the U.S. have turned dramatically against the war and the Bush administration is on the defensive. A new poll shows that more than 52% of Americans believe that Bush should be impeached. We have the momentum. Now is the time to make the international actions against the war as big and powerful as possible. United and determined, the people can stop the war!
