Also check websites of ANSWER Coalition and Peace Action for more protests. See also Saturday: Emergency Actions To Protest War On Syria.
As the U.S. gets closer to attacking Syria, people are mobilizing in the U.S. and around the world to protest and re-build our movement. The information that UNAC has received on protests around the country is listed below. The information will be updated regularly on the UNAC web site: http://UNACpeace.org. If you are having an action and have not listed it with us, please do so by clicking here: https://www.unacpeace.org/
Please join an action in your area and let others know.
Say NO to another US War!
