End Military Recruitment!
Monday, March 19th
Meet at 3 pm on the corner of Atlantic and Flatbush Avenues
(B,D,M,N,Q,R,2,3,4,5 to Atlantic Avenue or Pacific Street)
The march will proceed to the Armed Services Recruitment Center at 41
Flatbush Avenue.
On the fourth anniversary of the Iraq war people all over the city
will hit the streets in protest. As anarchists we will target the
recruitment engine of the war machine, which makes false promises to
those with the least so that they will fight a war for those with the
most.
Bring your joy, outrage, and desire to see this war over. Bring
noisemakers, drums, costumes, and a vision of a different future. Bring your songs, skits, pranks and signs. Bring your parents, kids, friends, and neighbors.
Hundreds of thousands of Iraqis and thousands of Americans dead and
counting. Come tell your local recruiters how you feel about it.
