April 4: March on Wall Street (organized by UFP—details below. More on web site) http://unitedforpeace.org
On the April 4th anniversary of Dr. King’s prophetic “Beyond Vietnam” speech delivered at Riverside Church, massive numbers of people will be in the street in a unified and nonviolent call to cut military spending and to fund human needs and ecological sustainability.
People will gather in New York City to protest war and rally for justice, equality and peace around the world. Groups for racial justice and economic equality, against war and occupation, for a new economy based on people’s needs, green union jobs and sustainability will all come together for a massive march on Wall Street.
