OUR GOALS

1) If the government and corporations won't stop the war, we'll shut down the warmakers! We will impose real economic, social and political costs and stop business as usual until the war stops.We are publicly declaring and organizing mass nonviolent direct action now, before war begins, with the express intention of deterring a war against Iraq and future wars.
2) Assert our power to transform our city from profits, oil and war to resistance and life! We will create an open, welcoming, inspiring space that gives voice to the antiwar majority as an assertion of real democracy.
3) Uproot the system behind the war (and behind the war at home—racism, poverty…); help catalyze mass movements to challenge corporate and government power and create socially just, directly democratic, ecological, peaceful alternatives.


ACTION MENU

We are asking affinity (action) groups choose from the menu and take over and transform the following key intersections and corporate and government offices/buildings. Or join the "Take Out" mobile Bikes not Bombs actions. Or plan your own action and menu item. Attend the weekly spokescouncil meeting to coordinate and help organize. The business day the morning after war starts you may wish to just go directly to a "menu" location or else to Main and Market where people will go out to support the actions. There are many ways to reclaim, transform, occupy or blockade spaces. Sit-ins, street parties, lockdown, objects, performance, street murals, gardening, large sculpture, dieins…


PLAN AHEAD.

Invite everyone you know.We will have fliers and encourage everyone to make an effort to talk to, diffuse or get support from those who get stuck on their way to work, school or other business.

DRIVE-THRU SERVICE AUTO BRIGADE
“This approach might provide some of us older people, in particular, with a
more viable method for prolonged participation.” From the person who started
this idea, which was used by the movement that toppled Slobadan
Milosevic. Drive through downtown very, very slowly. Or team up with
one or two other drivers and take two or three lanes on one street.
Support bicyclists and help the street blockade actions. Or simply stop
your car and refuse to move for as long as you are comfortable doing so.
Run out of gas. Or just leave it.Transform the City. Stop the War.
