Sunday, October 7 is the 11th anniversary of the war on Afghanistan. UNAC has called for actions throughout the country around the weekend of October 5 – 7 to protest our continued war on Afghanistan and the threats of war directed at Iran and Syria (Please see the entire list of actions below–also available at www.October7Actions.net.)
We also want use this anniversary to protest the war at home. The U.S. has spent an estimated 4 trillion dollars on the wars abroad, which instead could have been used for education, healthcare, housing, and other human needs. The increased national security atmosphere caused by the wars has meant ever increasing, racist attacks on Muslims, immigrants and communities of color.
Add your actions planned for October 5th – 7th to the list by emailing information to UNACpeace@gmail.com or going to www.October7Actions.net. Or join an action in your area.
