Yo, friends who want to stop the killing. WesPeace has been doing some planning, and now the ball's in our court:

Peace Demonstration in Middletown, March to Recruitment Office

Tuesday, November 27th at 4 PM

  • Congregate at the Usdan Courtyard after classes, between 4:00 and 4:15
  • We will march down Wyllys, High, Washington, and Main to the Army National Guard Recruitment Office
  • One group will stage a sit-in at the office, pass out a flier detailing a few "top military recruitment lies," (see below post) and talk to recruiters and passers-by. Others will continue to City Hall to follow-up on the presentation of the Middletown Common Council Resolution Against the War, reading the document aloud in front of City Hall.
  • If you plan to go into the recruitment office, please e-mail acasale@wesleyan.edu to get on the e-mail list for discussion of the plans and tips on civil disobedience. We will also talk before the march.
  • Bring signs & noisemakers and wear bright colors!
The message of our action is: END THE WAR! END THE MILITARIZATION OF YOUTH!

RSVP for the march to wespeace@gmail.com if possible, or just show up!
