AWARE will have a table at the Farmer's Market, for the first time
this season, tomorrow morning -- Saturday, May 13th, 8am-noon.<br class="">
<br class="">
We'll have a collection of anti-war flyers, as well as buttons and
bumper stickers.<br class="">
<br class="">
I'll also bring some copies of the Black Students for Revolution's
demands - we can talk about them with whoever stops by. On the
whole I think that they're admirable.<br class="">
<br class="">
Another admirable effort - hearing about this now - is the
#SaltwaterChallenge international campaign, which <a href="https://www.facebook.com/SJP.UIUC/" class="">Students from Justice in
Palestine UIUC</a> is participating in, in solidarity with some
1700 Palestinians in Israeli prisons who are protesting the only way
they can: through a hunger strike, now in its 21st day. Theirs is
a risky effort which merits our awareness and support.<br class="">
<br class="">
SJP UIUC thanks several other UIUC student groups as supporting them
in that effort, including
