Sat. March 18 -- National March on

No War in Ukraine! No to NATO! No
Weapons, No Money for the Ukraine War
More than 200 organizations have endorsed this protest

A coalition of progressive organizations has come together to build this action, which
will likely be the largest antiwar action in years. As
the US/NATO proxy war in Ukraine continues
putting major nuclear powers in an escalating war, It is time to be in
the streets in as large numbers as possible. Similar actions have
taken place in many countries in Europe, now we, in the "belly of the beast" must do the same.
Today, we see
increasing aggression against China, another major nuclear power. The
US refuses to drop sanctions against Syria, even for humanitarian
aid after the recent devastating earthquake. The US continues its
support for the right-wing government of Israel, even as it escalates
its attacks on the Palestinian people and on Iran and Syria.
Get to
Washington, DC any way you can on March 18.
The world needs the US antiwar movement as never before.
The
demonstration will make connections between the human and financial
toll of U.S. militarism at home and abroad. Key demands include:
- Peace in Ukraine - No weapons, no money for the Ukraine War
- Abolish NATO – End U.S. militarism & sanctions!
- Fund people’s needs, not the war machine!
- No war with China!
- End U.S. aid to racist apartheid Israel!
- Fight racism & bigotry at home!
- U.S. hands off Haiti!
- End AFRICOM!
- End Sanctions on Syria!
Tens of
thousands of flyers have been produced to circulate in the Washington, DC area. If you can help with this, please send an
email to UNACpeace@gmail.com
