Protest to Target 'Hawkish' Washington PostFrom DC Indy Media, via Zoe:
In response to the dramatically hawkish Washington Post editorials, DC activists will hold a "die-in" on Wednesday, March 12, at noon at the Washington Post building. The Post editorials are responsible for legitimating the Bush Administration's push toward an unjustified war in Iraq that will kill U.S. soldiers and thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians.
"We're going to hold the Post accountable for their pro-war editorials. They seem to have forgotten the social costs of war, but we will have body bags, bloody newspapers and civil disobedience to remind them," says Damu Smith, founder of Black Voices for Peace.
The Washington Post is located at 1150 15th St. NW.
For more information, contact Damu Smith, 202/246-3107, or Jason Kafoury, 202/387-8030.
