On Saturday April 11 at 1:30pm, join us in Farmington at the intersection of Main St. & Broadway to say no to war.
With imperial wars shifting into high gear now that the U.S. has foolishly attacked the well-armed and well-prepared Iran, the cost is calculated to be at least $2 billion per day.
What is the lost opportunity cost of such insane levels of spending on the military? Many in the U.S. are already struggling to survive after decades without universal health care, affordable housing, or affordable higher education. Already galloping inflation in the price of fuel and food will continue to outpace incomes following the entirely predictable denial of enemy shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. And aside from fuel, interrupted fertilizer shipments during planting season are expected to make food more scarce and much more expensive in the coming year.
Join us to raise your voice against the madness! Stand in solidarity with the people of Gaza and Cuba (still being blockaded and starved), Lebanon and Iran (still being bombed daily). Say no to endless wars! Bring your own sign or use one of ours.
Our demands:
- End U.S. aid to racist apartheid Israel!
- U.S. hands off Venezuela!
- Peace in Ukraine - No weapons, no money for the Ukraine War
- Abolish NATO – End U.S. militarism & sanctions!
- Fund people’s needs, not the war machine!
- No war with China!
- Protect Earth’s environment from the deadly insult of war!
- Fight racism & bigotry not war!
- U.S. hands off Haiti!
- End AFRICOM
Co-sponsors: Global Network Against Weapons & Nuclear Power in Space, Maine Natural Guard, PeaceWorks of Greater Brunswick, Communist Party of Maine, Maine Green Independent Party, Citizens Opposing Active Sonar Threats (COAST), Party for Socialism & Liberation Maine, Libertarian Party of Maine, Peace & Justice Center of Eastern Maine, Veterans for Peace - National, United National Antiwar Coalition (UNAC), Maine Voices for Palestinian Rights (MVPR), and Diaspora Pa’lante Collective.
