PHILA. CENTER CITY DEATH WALK/VIGIL, Saturday, October 6, 11:30a.m., 12th and Arch St.
Day #1 Space 4 Peace Week – International Protest of the Militarization of Space)
FRIENDS! The wars continue and our military government makes them seem like the status quo. We are just getting used to WARS – Yemen, Afghanistan, Syria, and countries in Africa which go unnamed but are being militarized by the U.S.
Right now the WAR in YEMEN, a human tragedy on a huge scale, continues with U.S. military support. Without that support this war would not continue. Just as remote-controlled drones and missiles wouldn’t fly with the continued militarization of space.
President Donald J. Trump and the Congress need to be resisted each day, in the streets, online, on the phone. This street protest, while quiet, is visible, dramatic, and one of a few that addresses the issue of U.S. WARMAKING. If wars fit Trump’s fascist agenda, he will wage them just as he has, significantly adding each month to the number of drone strikes and then some since the Obama Administration.
Please join us for the DEATH WALK on SATURDAY, October 6 (Day #1 Space 4 Peace Week – International Protest of the Militarization of Space), from 11:30 a.m. to 12:45, meeting at 12th & Arch St. Please wear BLACK, we will bring plain white masks. Call Marge Van Cleef at 203-804-3013 if you have questions or concerns.
We hold signs opposing U.S. DRONE WARFARE and TERRORISM, which is the killing of civilians.
This is a SILENT VIGIL representing the DEATHS of those killed by KILLER DRONES.
Peace, with hope that you will join us. Marge Van Cleef 203-804-3013 (cell)
