DESCRIPTION:On the 40th Anniversary of the first teach-in on the Vietnam War      
 NATIONAL TEACH-IN ON IRAQ: How Can We End This War?  Thursday, March 24, 
 7:00 PM  Mission High School, 3750 18th Street (at Dolores)  $5 requested 
 donation; Free for students; No one turned away for lack of funds.     Two 
 years after the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the country continues to bleed and 
 suffer. The death toll soars on all sides and especially among civilians. 
 The cost of the war mounts daily as vital services are cut at home. But 
 many questions remain: Did the January 2005 elections improve the situation 
 in Iraq? Is the US troop presence in Iraq helping stabilize the country, or 
 is it at the root of Iraq's deadly violence? And what are the true costs of 
 the war at home - its impact on military families and returning veterans, 
 its $200+ billion price tag, and the looting of our economy by militarist 
 corporations?     Join people throughout the country as we consider these 
 issues and others at teach-ins in San Francisco, Washington, DC, and Ann 
 Arbor, marking the 40th anniversary of the first Vietnam War teach-in in 
 1965.     Featured Speakers include:     oRahul Mahajan, Anti-war Activist 
 and Author of Full Spectrum Dominance: U.S. Power in Iraq and Beyond
