ACTIVATE has announced plans for a protest in response to President George W. Bush's visit to East Grand Rapids:
Friday, April 20 - 12:15pm (SHARP!)
John A. Collins Park
in East Grand Rapids
(on Lakeside Dr between Reeds Lake Blvd and Wealthy)This Friday, President George W. Bush will be speaking to deliver a "major policy speech" on Iraq. In response, ACTIVATE/SDS is calling for a protest to demand an immediate end to the occupation Iraq. From the recent escalation of the war to the killing of 655,000+ Iraqi civilians, this is a criminal war and occupation and it must end now.
Please bring noisemakers (drums, horns, shakers), large banners, and signs. We want this to be a loud and visible protest.
