List
of Activites for Dec. 3-11. Stop the War Week
- Dec 4-11- (Saturday to Saturday) Boycott Holiday Shopping
To Stop the War! We propose that from now on there can be
no business as usual as long as the war and occupation continue.
The system must be sent a message that a new and more determined
phase of the antiwar movement is about to begin that will
affect the day-to-day life of everyone. We cannot celebrate
the holiday season while the criminal war continues - Dec.4-11
anti-war forces will protest in front of retailers and businesses,
including Wal-Mart, Starbucks, and others to spread the message
of the holiday boycott to stop the war.
- Friday, December 3 - Student Day of Action - teach-ins,
walkouts, boycotts, protest
- Saturday, December 4 - No Draft No Way! Youth & Resistance
Conference in New York City.
- Sunday, December 5, Indoor Solidarity Rally with Haiti in
New York City
-Wednesday, December 8 - Stop Military Recruiting - Youth
and anti-militarism activists are calling for December 8 as
a nation-wide day to stop military recruiting by shutting
down recruiting stations, stopping military recruiting in
the schools, shutting down ROTC and JROTC, and engaging in
counter-recruiting teach-ins and activities.
- December 9 - Anti-racist activists know that December 9
is the infamous anniversary of the arrest of Mumia Abu-Jamal
and are planning activities on that date that connect the
issues of racism and the war.
- Friday, December 10 - International Human Rights Day (last
year the labor movement held protest rallies across the country
with the theme "Workers' Rights' are Human Rights"
This year we propose that the theme be "Workers rights
Not War- is a human right".
