Anti-War Leadership Announces Public Meeting to Unite the Movement
On February 5, a meeting was
held among more than 90 antiwar, labor, veterans,
environmental, political, gay, social justice, and
human rights groups and individuals. They met
to see if they could work together in the Bay Area under
the banner of "Stop the War in Iraq! Bring all the
Troops Home Now! And plan for a mass action
in New York on April 29, 2006 as a major focus;
and plan an event in the Bay Area for those who
can't go to NY on 4/29." The group decided to plan a conference (for)
sometime in April. Groups all over the Bay Area and even the Central Valley were represented; however, the meeting was by
invitation-only.
A public meeting for people who agree with the group's basic goals will be held on Saturday, February 25th at 10:30am at the ILWU Local 6 Headquarters South of Market in San Francisco. Additional nominations for the steering committee will be accepted. Read more, including the text of the invitation to the February 5th meeting.
