From the UFPJ website (http://www.unitedforpeace.org/calendar.php?calid=22938):
“Join us to form a human chain on 14th St. from Ave. A to 11th Ave. in Manhattan, on Saturday, March 22. Bring your friends, your banners, your signs. We will stand, hands joined, from noon to 1:00. Then both ends of the line (at 11th Ave and Ave A) will march in towards Union Square with each block filling in as the march goes by. We will converge near Union Square around 2:00 for a somber commemoration of the casualties of this immoral war. Bring photographs and flowers. Later this week, there will be photographs that you can download from our website: US service people, Iraqis, wounded vets, victims of Katrina, etc. The bells will toll, we will stand for 5 minutes in silence and then Taps will be played.” Read more
