The day after Thanksgiving: Black Friday peace demo

We are thankful for Suffolk Peace Network. We are thankful that there are still folks in this world willing to stand up for the ideals of peace and non-violence.

On the day after Thanksgiving, PeaceSmiths has traditionally leafleted at a toy store explaining why parents should not buy war toys. While we still feel this is an important issue, we were not able to pull off a specific demonstration. However, the Suffolk Peace Network is going right to the heart of the matter: Stop the Wars!

So, please consider joining the Suffolk Peace Network at Smith Haven Mall. In addition to Anti-War signs, you might also bring signs or fliers about an end to war toys and militarism. See link to War Resister’s League below. They have great info and downloadable lit about war toys. (more…)
