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
