*A MESSAGE FROM VETERANS FOR PEACE*

November 11 was proclaimed Armistice Day after World War I. But during
the Korean War, the Congress rebranded it “Veterans Day” and turned the
meaning on its head. For several years now, Veterans For Peace has been
working to reclaim November 11 as Armistice Day, a day when we commit
ourselves to abolishing war.
Gerry Condon
President, Veterans For Peace

Armistice Day is right around the corner, and once again, Veterans For
Peace is taking the lead to #ReclaimArmisticeDay

This year, as we celebrate the 101st Anniversary of Armistice Day we
call for November 11 to be observed as “a day dedicated to the cause of
world peace," as it was celebrated at the end of World War I when the
world came together to recognize the need for lasting peace.

Instead of celebrating militarism, we call for a celebration of peace
and all of humanity. We demand an end to all forms of hate, patriarchy
and white supremacy and we call for unity, fair treatment under the law
and equality for all. We call for a tearing down of walls between
borders and people. We call for an end to all hostilities at home and
around the globe.

Funding endless war is an existential threat to human life and one of
the leading causes of climate change, which is why it's urgent that we
come together in Washington D.C. and make the connection between U.S.
militarism and climate change. On Friday, November 8th, Fire Drill
Fridays will focus on War and Military.
