The Direct Action to Stop the War is leading a national day of actions against the war! DASW is calling for activists and community members to voice their opposition to the war in Iraq and at home by participating in one of three actions across the Bay Area.

Shut Down the Oakland Docks & Prevent Business as Usual for APL
Monday morning, instead of going to work or school, come down to the Oakland docks to picket the American President Lines. APL receives millions of taxpayer dollars every year for shipping military cargo through the Department of Defense Maritime Security Program (MSP). Meet as West Oakland Bart at 5am for access to shuttles to the action site. Help maintain a high-energy mass to prevent business as usual. This is a pro-worker/anti-war action, continuing on all day.
