A national
conference to connect all the issues:
“Stop the
Wars at Home & Abroad!”

The United
National Antiwar Coalition (UNAC) invites you to attend the “Stop the Wars at
Home & Abroad!” conference, to be held May 8-10, 2015, in Secaucus, N.J,
just outside New York City.
More and more, we can see how all the
problems of the world are connected. The trillions of dollars being spent on
wars-for-profit abroad could be used here at home to rebuild our cities, educate
our youth, employ our jobless, repair damage to the environment – and try to
make up for the endless suffering the Pentagon is inflicting on people around
the world, most of them people of color, the vast majority of whom have nothing
to do with threatening us or anyone else.
Some of the connections are even more
striking. Some of the very same kinds of military equipment used in Iraq was
seen this past summer on the streets of Ferguson, Mo. Surveillance drones
developed for use by the military are now being used by domestic police
departments. The endless “war on terror” is being used to justify taking away
our civil liberties here at home. Wars for oil in the Middle East keep fossil
fuels flowing, accelerating the climate change that threatens all
humanity.
This conference will be an opportunity
to meet and network with activists from across the country and learn about the
many struggles going on today, both at home and around the world. Speakers with
decades of experience will be joined by members of the new generations of
activists who are bringing fresh energy and ideas into the movement. Together,
we will learn from and inspire each other.
Most conferences cost many hundreds of
dollars to attend, but UNAC organizers are doing their best to keep this one
affordable for young activists and working people. Don’t miss this unique
opportunity to expand your knowledge, make many new progressive friends and
build the movement for fundamental social change.
Stop the
Wars at Home & Abroad!
