[Peace-discuss] Fwd: AWARE Demo. Saturday

[Karen Aram]

In response to Ann’s question on flyers.

Usually they are created by Carl, and printed out by David Green, unless otherwise suggested.

The focus is on our “foreign policy of war.”  The racism which is related to our wars, primarily in the middle east since 9/11.

Most Americans have no idea we are currently conducting eight wars, thus we’re left with little space to go into the history of US imperialism, though it is discussed frequently by Carl and David on the tv programs.

A problem is, that we are provoking new wars with Iran, Russia and China. Given they are not small vulnerable nations, its a very dangerous situation. Getting all this info. into a one page flyer isn’t easy, but one Carl and David have managed to do very nicely over the years.

My assumption is that we will be holding it per usual Saturday, downtown 2:00 - 4:00pm, whether there is something else or not.

The “Mothers against Guns" are holding a memorial in Westlake Park, I believe it is, at 4:00 pm. So I see it as complimentary, and hope Aware people will attend that as well. Provided its not too hot.

I assume we are demonstrating in downtown Champaign on Saturday at 2, yes.   Has anyone heard of some goings-on that conflict with it?

Sorry to hitch onto this thread. Is AWARE holding regular Ist Saturday of month protest in downtown Champaign tomorrow, June 2? We discussed it at last Sundays AWARE meeting. Attendees were Don, Genevieve, Doug, Anne Bj. (Hope I have names and spelling correct!) Consensus on Sunday seemed to be yes. Question was- is there something else going on downtown that might interfere with protest? Also do we need a flyer?
Suggestion on flyer:
"Do All Lives Matter?" What about Native Americans? "

From ACLU People Power.   They write:

We need to raise our voices against the key actors who are carrying out Trump’s family separation order: ICE and U.S. Attorneys. ICE apprehends and separates families while US Attorneys enforce the separation in legal proceedings. We need to stand up against this incompetence and the moral abomination of family separation.

We're excited to be partnering with the National Domestic Workers Alliance, MomsRising, United We Dream, MoveOn and many others to hold family-friendly rallies across the country. Bring your friends, wheel your stroller on over, grab your lunch boxes, and make your family's voice heard loud and clear, that #FamiliesBelongTogether.
