If you can't make it to DC (or if you get back in town)
this is a local way to stand against war.
Standing with Martin"
January 20, 2003, 3-4 PM
"Stand with Martin in the spirit of peace;
Stand for peace in the spirit of Martin."
.".. When machines and computers, profit motives and property rights,
are considered more important than people, the giant triplets of racism,
extreme materialism, and militarism are incapable of being conquered...
America, the richest, most powerful nation in the world, can well lead the
way in this revolution of values. There is nothing except a tragic death
wish to prevent us from reordering our priorities, so that the pursuit of
peace will take precedence over the pursuit of war. "
Excerpt Rev. Dr. King's speech April 4, 1967, at Riverside Church
On the brink of war, please join in a recognition of the spirit of the Dr.
King who spoke so eloquently and lived so deeply for the full realization
of peace and justice.
3 PM - Gather at Cambridge City Hall and stand out on Mass Ave
(possible mini-marches to Inman, MIT, the river, Harvard Sq. and Central)
with placards.
4PM - Gather indoors for hot drinks and a recitation of Dr. King's
Riverside church speech on war (excerpts) at St. Peter's Church, Sellers
street entrance (across from City Hall.)
Will you consider-
Letting your community know?
Joining the presence from 3-4 in Central Square?
Being a reader of the Riverside speech?
