Silent Candlelight Vigil in Solidarity with the Women of Juarez

In solidarity with the families of the women of Juarez and those that are joining
them there in an awareness weekend, CodePink will hold a candlelight vigil in
Dolores Park (18th St and Dolores, SF) similar to the one that will be held the same evening in Ciudad Juarez.

What better prelude to a Valentine's evening with your sweetie than sharing an hour
of love, support and community?

Bring a candle, a friend, or a partner.

If you can't come to the vigil, put a candle and a heart in your window on
Valentine's weekend that says, "In Solidarity with the Women of Juárez." Stay tuned
for future actions and events borne from the events there.

CodePink will join V-Day, Amnesty International, and many others in Ciudad Juarez on
Valentine's Weekend to bring awareness and support to the families of the women of
Juarez who have been brutally and systematically murdered. To find out more about
