International ANSWER coalition:
Mass 'unity rally' plans
International ANSWER reported on March 25 that the principal
anti-war coalitions planning demonstrations and rallies on
April 20 in Washington, D.C., have agreed to a concluding unity
rally that will be organized and co-chaired by those
coalitions. Marches organized by the different coalitions will
converge on Pennsylvania Avenue east of the White House and
move together to the unity rally site. The coalitions are
forming a joint committee to organize and plan the unity
rally.
The ANSWER coalition says it "considers this united front
effort to be an essential component of building a movement that
can stop George Bush's 'declaration of war' that is targeting
the people of Iraq, Colombia, Palestine, Vieques, the
Philippines, Yemen, Somalia, Korea, Iran and elsewhere." The
domestic component of this war drive, says ANSWER, is "an
attack on civil rights and civil liberties at home."
Further details of the marches and unity rally will be
announced later.
