It's the first Saturday of November, and AWARE will be out as ever at
Main and Neil from 2-4 PM.
Why?
David Swanson says it
<http://warisacrime.org/content/swing-state-pickup-lines>:
> Change comes from broad-based popular movements that impact the entire
> culture. This is how we got civil and political rights, how we got
> workplace rights and environmental protections -- such as they are.
> Everything worth achieving has been achieved by educating, organizing,
> inspiring, and pressuring the government, and not by picking the right
> portion of the government to reelect, cheer for, and withhold all
> criticism from.
and
> By activism I mean educating, organizing, rallying, marching,
> lobbying, reporting, editorializing, inspiring, blockading,
> boycotting, interrupting, mocking, replacing, and nonviolently
> resisting evil policies in the thousands and thousands of ways
> available to nonviolent activists.
Carl has made this month's flyer from Swanson's wonderful article -
Swing State Pickup Lines
<http://warisacrime.org/content/swing-state-pickup-lines>. Come
practice them with us. And oh yeah, stand up against the wars, while
you're at it.
