Nationwide Organizing Meetings September 7
Today, for the second time this month, World Can’t Wait – Drive Out the Bush Regime published a full-page ad in the New York Times calling for massive protests across the country on OCTOBER 5. The ad reads: 'ENDLESS WARS! TORTURE! KATRINA! THEOCRACY! BRING THIS TO A HALT! We must act now-- The world's future is in our hands."
The ad calls for nationwide unconventional protests: "Walk out of school! Refuse to work! No shopping on Oct. 5! …March through the streets calling on millions more to join us in repudiating this criminal regime with the mobilization of massive political opposition!"
Similar ads are appearing today in the LA Weekly, Chicago Reader, San Francisco Bay Guardian, and the DC City Paper. And on Air America radio, national 30-second spots will begin this week featuring nationally known signers of the World Can't Wait Call. The message: " Face it. The Bush regime is remaking the world, very quickly, in a fascist way and for generations to come. Denial won't help. And the Democrats aren't stopping them. But WE must. And we can. There are millions of us…"
On the evening of Thursday, September 7, there will be simultaneous meetings in cities and towns nationwide to organize for October 5.
