What effect will the impending war on Iraq have on women in Iraq, the 
United States, and across the globe? What impact will a war have on 
the already scarce resources available to women in Iraq and in our 
own country? Are we prepared to lose yet another generation to 
war-making?

Groups all over the world will be using International Women's Day 
(March 8th) to address these questions. Join us for this rally *open 
to everyone* to stand in solidarity with women all over the world and 
to DEMAND A JUST PEACE!

-- Brooke Anderson (Progressive Resource/Action Cooperative)
-- Mona Haggag (Muslim Students Association)
-- Kathy Sims (Center for Women in Transition)
-- Kathie Spegal (Planned Parenthood of East Central IL)
-- Assata Zerai (Prof. of Afro-American Studies)
