something to do on this dark, dark day other than hide . . .

Not in Our Name is one of the initiating organizations of an Anti-War March and Rally End the Occupation. Messages of the march and rally include "Out of Iraq Now! No matter who is elected, we say no to war and repression!" The demonstration will gather on Wednesday, November 3rd at 5PM at Powell & Market, and will then march to 24th & Mission.

"On November 3rd, the night after the elections, we will still be against the unjust war and occupation, the police state restrictions of the Patriot Acts, and the ongoing attacks on our immigrant communities."

Barbara Lubin, Executive Director of the Middle East Children's Alliance, said: "The lives of children around the world—especially in Palestine and Iraq—are in danger every day because of the militarism and misguided foreign policies of both political parties. Meanwhile, those who speak up for children and provide humanitarian aid are coming under increasing scrutiny and pressure. The Middle East Children's Alliance is proud to join Not in Our Name in its call to stand up to war and injustice—for the sake of all our children."

Participants are encouraged to bring flashlights, drums, and noisemakers to this permitted event. The march will feature the Loco Bloco Drum and Dance Ensemble. Leaflet For up-to-date info, more leaflets and posters, a list of endorsers, and more, see www.nionbayarea.net
