A local group from this area frequently attends the peace marches in Washington DC. Bob Billings is the local organizer and provided the following information.
A.N.S.W.E.R.
Act Now To Stop War and End Racism
This is a call to everyone in North Georgia who would like to march, help someone else get to this march or help find someone to go either in your place or with you on the bus.
Help Make History on the 5th Anniversary of the War
Join us on Saturday, March 15th for a massive demonstration in Washington, D.C., at which we will exercise our rights to assemble and speak on behalf of the majority of Americans, the majority of Iraqis, the majority of U.S. troops, and the majority of people around the world who all say: U.S. Out of Iraq! This gathering will support the Iraq Veterans Against The War Winter Soldier Testimonial.
I am filling seats to this Historic March now. Bus tickets round trip are $90.00. We carpool from Lumpkin, White and Habersham Counties to the Wal-Mart parking lot in Commerce, GA just off I-85 on Friday March 14th, 2008 and depart from Commerce bound for D.C. around 8:00 PM. We ride together all night stopping several times for breaks and food, arriving just outside of Washington D.C. the next morning. We will enter the city via the subway system and will assemble at a point to be determined on the mall. A.N.S.W.E.R.’s goal is to make this a million person march. We will meat up with the buses again Saturday evening and return to Commerce, GA around 8:00 AM Sunday morning.
Please make a contribution to help others go on this March, sponsor someone in your place, go yourself and most importantly help find others who will go. We need marchers and contributions to insure that no one who wants to go is left behind.
I have 40 seats reserved with the Atlanta International Action Center who is organizing and providing buses to this Historic event. This War is about to enter its 6th Year, Please march with us for Peace and Just for all.
Email me with what you can do, GO, Support someone else who wants to go, find others to go with you or in your place. Please we only have weeks before this event takes place and 11 of the 40 seats are already booked. If your response is so great we will add more buses.
