Stop the Corporate Invasion of Iraq
Join in a spirited street theatre demonstration in front of the offices of Bechtel and Halliburton during lunch hours on Tuesday, Feb. 24. The action is part of an international day of protest to end the corporate invasion of Iraq and to support Iraqi workers' rights.
Meet at 11:30 a.m. at McPherson Square, which is across the street from Bechtel's offices (1015 15th St; 15th and K Streets). Then at noon, cross the street and gather in front of Bechtel's offices, doling out money and contracts while Bechtel employees and others pass by. At 1 p.m., head over to Halliburton (1150 18th St.; 18th & L, M) for more street theater.
