CALL TO ACTION:
MARCH ON THE IMF/WORLD BANK DELEGATES ON OCTOBER 11TH IN WASHINGTON, DC
The IMF and World Bank are responsible for driving millions across the globe into poverty and misery. Through predatory lending to impoverished nations, these international loansharks impose the privatization of resources, the erosion of labor and environmental protections, and severe slashes to social services. However, poor and oppressed peoples facing assaults on their standards of living are not taking it lying down. Resistance is spreading all over the world, from rebellions against water privatization in Bolivia and South Africa to general strikes against "free trade" agreements in South Korea. Now the IMF and World Bank are coming to DC, and it's time to bring the resistance home.
Join us at Dupont Circle at 1:00 am on the night of Saturday, Oct. 11th into the morning of Sunday, Oct. 12th for a rowdy, noisy march to the hotels where delegates are staying. Bring noisemakers to wake up the caretakers of global capitalism and tell them they're not welcome in DC!
NO PEACE FOR THE BANK!
NO SLEEP FOR THE ELITE!
