Fellow Greens!
Join the Students for a Democratic Society this Wednesday to protest the current wars!
Green Party reps will be there to register voters and help people change their registration to Green - the only political party to oppose either of the wars.
Wed., Oct. 7th
4:30p - 7p
washington square park (near geva)
South Clinton Ave. & Court St.
WE DEMAND:
U.S. OUT OF IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN!
We thoroughly reject the idea that the occupation of Afghanistan is "the good war" or in any way better or more necessary than the war in Iraq. Neither make us any safer from the "terrorist threat" and both are unjust wars for profit in which thousands of people die, including soldiers and civilians. We demand the immediate withdrawal of all U.S. troops and private contractors from Iraq and Afghanistan.
DEMILITARIZE OUR SCHOOLS!
A school is a place of learning and should be completely free of all military influence. We find military recruitment in our schools to be offensive. Specifically, we demand the reversal of the disgusting Opt-Out Policy just adopted by the Rochester City School District that requires the release of students' private information to military recruiters without the consent or knowledge of students or their parents.
MONEY FOR EDUCATION, NOT WAR!
STOP BUDGET CUTS!
We recognize the most recent budget cuts to devastate the Rochester City School District to be part of a growing national trend toward cutting society's money from education in order to pay for the costs of war and corporate greed. We demand that these cuts be fought tooth and nail at every turn! We the students refuse to pay for these wars with our education!
*****there will be a Drum and Hula hoop Militia! bring drums and hoops if you have them!!
