Subject: Organizing Protests Against Sept. 11th Pro-War Rally

Hi, thank you for your time.

I checked your website and forums and didn't find anything like what I was looking for, so I hope you don't mind the question.

I just read the announcement about the Pro-War Rally organized by the Bush Administration to take place on September 11th, and I was wondering if anyone is planning any kind of counter-protests, specifically something in cities across the US, since most of us can't fly to Washington to protest there. I'd be willing to help organize something where I live (Albuquerque, NM), but I have no idea how to go about doing so.

If there's already something under way that I can help facilitate and you can let me know where I would look for further information, I would really appreciate it. If you haven't heard of anything, any suggestions you might have for an inexperienced political activist would *also* be much appreciated. :)

Thanks in advance for your time,

~D~
Albuquerque, NM

Meh. No response. But now I'm rattling the cage of the Abq Peace & Justice Center - wish me luck...

this (http://www.dailylobo.com/media/paper344/news/2005/03/04/News/Activists.Mayor.Form.Alliance-886157.shtml) is the most recent news item I could find about albuquerque's protest ordinance.

p.s. i'm totally down to help out in any way i can.

VERY cool article. I don't care for Marty, but at least he's apparently slightly amenable to puclic opinion. There's now one positive thing I can say about Albuquerque - it hasn't succumbed entirely to the Forces of Evil...

Anyway, as per updated post, I just sent an e-mail to the Abq Peace & Justice Center - here's hoping...

Well, we can always resort to violence.

See, that's what I like about you - you're such an optimist. ::pinches cheek::
