Hey everyone,
Just a reminder to come out to Andover and march outside the 3rd largest
defense contractor in the US, and maker of the Tomahawk missile. This event
should be really fun, and it's a lot closer than Washington D.C. And, we
have cars to take you there.
IMPORTANT: If you want to go, call me, Arjun, ASAP at 617-694-3531!
See you there,
-Arjun

4th Annual Death & Taxes Resitance Festival April 12, 2003
Join us for a Celebration of Life as we march from IRS to Raytheon (Only 1/4 Mile) with music, puppets, the anarchist quack block, a Jedi Knight contingent and more.
Saturday April 12, 2003
Bring your family, friends, signs, puppets, musical instruments, costumes and rubber ducks. Gather at Noon in front of IRS, RT. 133 Andover, followed by a march to Raytheon.
Raytheon is the third largest military contractor in the US and is just a few miles from Lawrence, one of the poorest cities in Massachusetts. While the federal government gives Raytheon tens of billions of dollars to build
weapons components in Andover, Lawrence's schools, low-income housing programs and social services agencies are under-funded.
Join us as we continue highlighting the destructive priorities of our national budget, where currently $.53 of every tax dollar goes for militaristic purposes.
Activists from out of town needing housing should call ahead.
Any groups or organizations interested in participating, sponsoring or helping to organize the event contact Rose Gonzalez at (978) 975-2421 or
