Please forward widely!
This May Day...
FUNK THE WARS
Join a coalition of progressive groups this May 1st to celebrate the
Left and protest the numerous wars dragging our country down.
From 10am-4pm, the organization Four Walls and a Roof, which is raising
money to build a women's shelter in Cotacachi, Ecuador, will be hosting
a QUAD QUAKE silent dance party to help the women of Cotacachi. In
addition, a myrid of progressive groups will be out all day with
information tables set up.
Then at 5pm, the funk will begin. Speakers and musicians will ensure
that the Quad is *THE* place to be if you're a progressive, Leftist,
radical, or any other related ideological identity. Speakers will
include representatives from the Graduate Employees Organization, Campus
Antiwar Network, Amnesty International, Green Party and Campus Greens,
the International Socialist Organization, and Iraq Veterans Against the
War, as well as an open mic session to let you get your own funk on.
The progressive movement on campus doesn't stop then, however! The next
day, Students for a Sensible Drug Policy will be holding Champaign's
"Million Marijuana March" at 2pm at the Alma Mater, and at 7pm on
Saturday, Four Walls and a Roof are hosting a benefit show at the
McKinley Foundation. Get ready for an entire weekend of getting your
funk on!
