Cindy Sheehan speaks in Berkeley Friday

by Todd C (ToddChretien [at] comcast.net)
Cindy Sheehan, Peter Camejo, Barbara Becnel and Todd Chretien: 7pm on Friday at UC Berkeley, VLSB Rm#2050.
Cindy Sheehan, Peter Camejo, Barbara Becnel (Stan Tookie Williams co-author) and Todd Chretien will speak at 7pm on Friday night at UC Berkeley, VLSB Rm#2050.

Turning the Tide Against the War in Iraq and at Home. Come find out how you can get involved in the movements to bring the troops home now, stop the execution of Stan Tookie Williams, defend immigrant rights and build a real political alternative to Bush and the bi-partisan consensus in Washington, D.C.

The U.S. Supreme Court, on October 11, 2005, ruled against Tookie on his final appeal and set his execution date for December 13. Thus they disregarded 9 of the 24 Ninth Circuit Court judges' assertion that the District Attorney at Tookie's trial employed "reprehensible and unconstitutional" racist tactics, using animal-in-a-jungle metaphors to refer to Tookie and to the South Central environment in which he lived. This landmark ruling means that minorities can now legally be rejected from juries based on race. This is now the law of the land.

STOP the EXECUTION!!!!
