DESCRIPTION:San Francisco 99% Coalition speaks out at UN Plaza in SF for human rights 
 & against NDAA\n\nAs a part of the Bay Area 2012 May Day actions on 
 Tuesday, May 1, at 10:30 am, San Francisco progressive activists from 
 around the Bay Area will gather at San Francisco's UN Plaza to celebrate 
 human rights and raise awareness about the National Defense Authorization 
 Act (NDAA), a law that consolidates a decade-long slide in civil liberties 
 here in the United States.\n\nPresident Obama signed the NDAA into law on 
 December 31, 2011.  It contains provisions that could allow indefinite 
 detention and arbitrary military detention, without trial or day in court, 
 of anyone accused of any "belligerent act" or terror-related 
 offense--including "material support" allegations based strictly on speech 
 or association. It essentially subjects everyone within the US (including 
 citizens, legal residents, and visitors) to the same lawless standards at 
 work in Guantanamo Bay.\n\nIn response, cities all over the United States 
 have passed local resolutions of non-compliance, including at least two Bay 
 Area cities: Fairfax and Santa Cruz.  And another resolution is being 
 proposed for passage in San Francisco by the San Francisco 99% Coalition. 
 \n\nThe program will include speeches, folks songs, poetry and a public 
 reading of selected excerpts from the Universal Declaration of Human 
 Rights.\n\nWHO:              Civil liberties advocates from the San 
 Francisco 99% Coalition and Bay Area allies  \n\nWHAT:            Speak out 
 against NDAA and for civil liberties\n\nWHEN:            Tuesday, May 1, 
 10:30 AM \n\nWHERE:         UN Plaza, Market, between 7th and 8th 
 Streets\n\nThe San Francisco 99% Coalition (www.sf99percent.org) supports 
 groups working to promote progressive social, economic and environmental 
 public policies. \n\n\n
