Lambda Independent Democrats Holds a Forum on Atlantic Yards
I got this from Lambda Independent Democrats:
LID and the Atlantic Yards - Oct. 22nd
LID will be taking a hard look at the Atlantic Yards proposal. Until now, the club has remained neutral, but the time has come to take a position. We have invited Councilmember Latitia James (confirmed) and Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz (unconfirmed) to talk about the pros and cons of this project. Please join us on October 22nd, 7:30pm at Camp Friendship located at 339 8 Street, just below 6th Avenue.
End the War Now—National Day of Action
Friday, 28 September 2007
Join thousands from all over New York and northern New Jersey in a massive march and rally to end the war!
Assemble at 12 noon
Broadway, north of Union Square (permit pending)
March at 1:00pm
On October 27th, people from all walks of life will gather in 11 sites around the country for massive regional demonstrations against the war. These nationally coordinated events are being built and mobilized by groups across the country. The people of this country want the war to end, but Washington has failed to take decisive action. With each passing month, nearly 100 servi- cepeople and countless more Iraqis are killed, some 12 billion of our tax dollars are spent, and the death and destruction continue. Our communities—from New Orleans to Minneapolis—are neglected and suffer the consequences. From Vermont to California, from Florida to Wisconsin, the people have spoken: We want this war to end, and we want it to end now!
