DESCRIPTION:On April 7, 75O community members held a community picket against war 
 profiteers APL and SSA. After closed meetings with these corporations, 
 Oakland Police opened fire on protesters with potentially-lethal wooden 
 bullets, metal-shot filled bags and concussion grenades. 3 members of the 
 media, 9 longshore workers and 50 community members were injured. \n\nAPL 
 corporation profits from shipping ammunition, like that used in Iraq by the 
 US Government to kill and injure thousands of civilians and dozens of Iraqi 
 anti-war/occupation protesters. \n\nSSA will profit from the second 
 corporate invasion of Iraq. The US Government, refusing to consider 
 Iraqi's, has awarded SSA a three year monopoly contract with guaranteed 
 profit to run Umm Qasr, Iraq's major port. \n\nOakland Police and Jerry 
 Brown must respect our right to protest and end their war at home; long 
 term brutality and injustice against the people-- particularly communities 
 of color-- of Oakland. \n\nJoin us and help catalyze mass movements to 
 challenge corporate and government power and create socially just, directly 
 democratic, ecological, peaceful alternatives to the war for empire and the 
 system behind it. \n go to www.actagainstwar.org for more details\n\n
