Student and Youth Contingent at Chicago's March 20th protest meet at 10:00 am at the Corner of Roosevelt and Halstead
* |
please forward widely!!!
Join the student and youth contingent at Chicago's march 20th protest!!!!
In solidarity with the demonstration and march being planned for
March 20 the Education Not Empire (March 4) coalition is calling for
a student and youth convergence and feeder march beginning at 10am on
the corner of Halstead and Roosevelt. At approximately 10:36am we
will be joined by other feeder marches coming from the southside and
Pilsen area and then continue on together as one massive student and
youth contingent towards the March 20 rally site at Michigan and
Pearson.
We'll have a short rally at Halstead and Roosevelt while we wait for
the other feeder marches to arrive so bring buckets, drums, signs,
banners, puppets, water, snacks, other essentials, and your energy
and enthusiasm and join together with other students and youth as we
Walk Against War!
Halstead and Roosevelt is a high visibility location in terms of
vehicular traffic, is the location of UIC's ROTC training program and
the gateway to University Village where what was once a historic,
flourishing and ethnically diverse community known as Maxwell St. has
been gentrified to make room for overpriced condominiums, overpriced
and culturally bland dining, Starbucks coffee shops, Barbara's
Bookstores, etc.

Also...
In case people will arrive late the march will proceed north on
Halstead to Adams, east on Adams to Michigan, and north on Michigan
to Pearson. Feel free to meet up with us along the way
(cause when we're walkin against war, it's gonna take MILES to
get to a land of peace and justice)

Yes there will be a convergence on 3-20 but this root information is not correct. this gives a root that is thru one of the worst neighborhoods in the city of chicago! yes you should come to this if you can because there hasnt been a big response to this demo and we need all teh support we can get but come, do your own thing, but be careful about what directions you get marshalled into. |
