On April 20, tens of thousands of people from many

communities and movements -- the African American, Latino,

Arab, Asian, Native and other communities of color, union,

women, communities of faith, immigrants, lesbian, gay, bi

and trans people, students and youth, environmentalists

and others -- will join together in Washington, D.C. and

San Francisco to take a stand against war and racism.

The Bush program is a disastrous response to the Sept. 11

disaster. As the U.S. war continues in Afghanistan, a new

war in Iraq is being planned. U.S. troops are now in

Yemen, Georgia, the Philippines and Colombia. U.S. F-16s

supplied to Israel are raining death on Palestinian

cities.

The Pentagon is preparing for nuclear war against China,

Russia, Iran, North Korea, Iraq, Syria and Libya! The

military budget will rise to $500,000,000,000 by 2007. The

right-wing, militarist extremists have taken control and

are pushing ahead with horrific and genocidal plans.

We also see a wide-ranging attack on civil rights, civil

liberties and immigrant rights. Millions here and billions

around the world live in poverty, without healthcare,

jobs, decent housing and education. Environmental

restrictions are being overturned for the sake of

maximizing corporate profits.

There is only one force that can stop this pro-war,

racist, anti-worker offensive -- a mass people’s movement.

April 20 will be the next critical step in building the

movement we need. Join us, become an organizer, make a

contribution, get involved. Together we can win!
