15, 2013 Boston Veterans For Peace Again Forced to March Behind the Official Pro-War Veterans Day ParadeAbout one hundred members of Smedley Butler Brigade Veterans For Peace and their supporters, marched on Veterans Day. As in years past, VFP is forced to march well behind the official pro-war Veterans Day parade, separated at the end by Boston police on motorcycles. The pro-war parade organizers reject the VFP because they are anti-war.Additional photos of Boston Parade Back to Top Thanks to VFP Chapters Who Participated in VFP's National call to "Ring Eleven Bells for Peace"The National office received reports of Armistice Day events in Charlottesville NC, London UK, Indianapolis IN, Manchester NH, Daytona Beach FL, St Paul MN, Roxboro NC, San Jose CA, Iowa City IA, Evansville IN, Chicago IL, Milwaukee WI, Santa Monica CA, Boston MA, Traverse City MI, Cape Cod MA, Portland OR, Hyannis MA, San Francisco CA and New York NY.VFP Chapter 72 in Portland OR (Video) VFP Chapter 91 in San Diego CA ( Video) VFP Chapter 101 in South Bay/Peninsula CA (Video) VFP Chapter 134 in Tacoma WA (Report) VFP Members in London UK (Article) VFP Members in Missoula MT (Article) VFP Members in Traverse City MI (Article) Gerry Condon's Armistice Day Interview with Scott Harris on WPKN radio in Bridgeport, Connecticut (Audio) Back to Top |
This space is dedicated to the proposition that we need to know the history of the struggles on the left and of earlier progressive movements here and world-wide. If we can learn from the mistakes made in the past (as well as what went right) we can move forward in the future to create a more just and equitable society. We will be reviewing books, CDs, and movies we believe everyone needs to read, hear and look at as well as making commentary from time to time. Greg Green, site manager
