FIP version 2.0 – Now with national support!
September 21, 2007
Well…finals came, everyone got busy, friends left…and the movement fizzled.
But, now I’m back. And I’m pissed again. Things got way too comfortable for me, but something new has roused that fightin’ spirit inside me. Iraq Moratorium is here, starting today. Iraq Moratorium sports some pretty serious sponsors, including Noam Chomsky, Danny Glover, and Howard Zinn. They’re message: Do something. Do anything, to show your opposition to this war.
The Iraq Moratorium movement is inspired in part by similar protests against the all-too-familiar Vietnam War. This has the potential to be extremely successful, and it just so happens that the call for action will repeat every third Friday of every month, dubbed Moratorium Day, which fits in very nicely with what we tried to do around here.
So, the movement’s back, now with a national following. So, go ahead, do something today. Wear a black armband, hang a sign at work, call a congressman, have a meet and greet. Anything to end this war.
P.S. – Expect a torrent of new posts, I’ve had some time to think about things and I have a lot to write about.
