OF ACTIVISTS AND MOVEMENTS

AFRIKINE RESTAURANT IN HARLEM, NYC
247 W 116TH ST. (NEAR FREDERICK DOUGLASS BLVD)
The TROOPS OUT NOW COALITION invites everyone to join activists at an EMERGENCY ANTIWAR SUMMIT MEETING on Saturday, November 18 in Harlem NYC at the spacious Afrikine Restaurant, 247 W. 116th St. The meeting will began promptly a 1:00 PM. There will be a buffet lunch featuring delicious African Cuisine for a $ donation.
Our challenge as a movement is to turn the electoral referendum against the war into a mass movement in the streets. Yes, Rumsfeld's been pushed out, and both Democratic Party and Republican Party politicians have vowed to change the course of the war and occupation of Iraq--but we must not be fooled. The war will go on unless we take this struggle back to the streets. Join activists in the fight against both the war abroad and the war at home at an emergency antiwar summit meeting on Nov. 18th in Harlem. Amongst the questions that this important meeting will be taking up are:
- How can we merge the antiwar movement with movements against racism, for the rights of immigrant workers, hurricane Katrina/Rita survivors, and for economic and social justice in a way that goes beyond symbolism?
- How can the movement here in the U.S. show solidarity and build stronger relationships with liberation and resistance movements around the world, from Palestine to Haiti, and across the Middle East, Latin America, Africa and Asia?
- How can we mobilize to make the fourth anniversary of the war and occupation of Iraq in March 2007 helpful to our goal of ending the war, and unifying the movements that need to be working together?
Let's come together to analyze, strategize and plan the next phase of the struggle.
