Arrestees need your help

Hello friends,

Members of the Pagan Cluster were arrested today at Herald Square, in
Manhattan, NYC. They were doing a peaceful direct action/civil
disobedience, along with other groups, at a major point of entry for
delegates to the Republican Nat'l Con. Their focus was peace in Iraq. All
13 of the Pagan Cluster were arrested, shortly after 7 pm local time.
Details are sketchy, but from what can be gathered, all are reasonably well.

You -- yes you -- can be a crucial support to our friends. Please call and
send emails to NYC officials, asking for their release, and the release of
all those arrested in RNC actions. Let's flood 'em. Time is of the
essence, please do it as soon as you can. It's an important contribution
from those of us who have not been able to go to New York, but still want
our voices to be heard.

Caveat: do NOT mention anyone by name. They are not giving their names to
the police at this point, so help them keep their anonymity.

Here are those NYC contacts. Thank you for your help!

blessings,
Mer
