March Across Golden Gate Bridge International Peace Day

CodePINK:Women for Peace is calling all Bay Area women and our allies to help kick off International Peace Day, Thursday, September 21^st with an early morning rush hour March across the Golden Gate Bridge.

We are heeding the call put out by Declaration of Peace to engage in a week of protests, marches, and non-violent civil disobedience to end this horrific war against Iraq.

We will be naming this action a Celebration of International Peace Day & will carry banners that say “DECLARE PEACE” “It’s time” and “RISE, WOMEN, RISE” (from Julia Ward Howe’s original Mother’s Day Peace Proclamation).

We are planning on gathering before 8:00a.m. in the parking lots on both ends of the bridge; then we will proceed across the bridge towards each other.

We are in the process of getting a permit for this march for those people who are not interested in civil disobedience.

If you are interested in sponsoring this action with us, please respond to this email or call 510-524-2776 ASAP! We will be having a final organizing meeting Sunday, September 17^th 6:00p.m. Please spread the word!

Just show up on Thursday morning!

In pink peace, power, protest, participation,
