Wednesday, March 19th will begin early with a Public Assembly at 7:30
AM in McPherson Square (15th and K St.) with information about the day
and how to plug in. At 8 AM some groups will blockade the IRS, others
will shut down war profiteers in the K St. Corridor, No War No Warming
will be calling for a separation of oil & state at the American
Petroleum Institute, while the Grannies will knit outside the
recruiters office! At the same time, the March of the Dead will begin
in Arlington Cemetery and process through downtown. At 9 AM the
Veterans March for Peace will begin with several stops, culminating
with actions near the White House and Veterans Administration. At
noon, students will dance in the streets saying Funk the War and
exposing war profiteers, recruiters and media along the way. There
will also be a demonstration of waterboarding outside the White House
in the mid-afternoon.

Imagine thousands of us moving throughout the streets in Downtown DC,
in big groups and small, all working to expose, disrupt and transform
those that are promoting and profiting from war.Twenty-four hours from
when we began, we will gather at the Reflecting Pool on the West side
of the Capitol at 5:00 PM and march with pots and pans in a cacophony
of resistance to the Democratic National Committee Headquarters. Here
we will make it clear that we hold them accountable for the death,
destruction and lies and that we will we will continue to take action
and intervene in their business until our call for peace is honored
and all of our troops come home.
