DESCRIPTION:This November 11 will be the 100th anniversary of Armistice Day, which only 
 later came to be commemorated in the U.S. as Veterans Day. Veterans for 
 Peace Chapter 101 invites you to join in the ringing of a bell at 11 am 
 this November 11 to focus on the desire to end the horror of war rather 
 than celebrate it.\n\nAfter the solemn gathering, the 11 am bell-ringing 
 and a minute of silence there will be an opportunity to address the 
 gathering with brief personal reflections. Banners and signs are fine but 
 it would be best if the ambience were more reserved until after he bell is 
 rung.\n\nFeatured performances: \nSongs by the Raging Grannies \nKhalilah 
 Ramirez and Sharat Lin performing the Dance of Peace\n\nVeterans for Peace 
 chapters across the nation are meeting on street corners in major cities to 
 commemorate the original ARMISTICE DAY by ringing bells 11 times at 11 am 
 on November 11 as as was done at the end of World War I, when the world 
 came together in realization that war is so horrible we must end it 
 now.\n\nSponsored by Veterans for Peace Chapter 101, WILPF San José 
 Branch, San José Code Pink, San José Catholic Worker, San José Peace & 
 Justice Center, Raging Grannies - San José Gaggle, Green Party of Santa 
 Clara County, Pacific Life Community - Bay Area and others\n
