This Wednesday will mark a grim milestone: the U.S. occupation of Iraq will enter its fifth year. That means five years that the people of Iraq have been forced to live under the daily violence of the U.S. occupation of their country resulting in the deaths of over 1.2 million Iraqis and nearly 4,000 U.S. troops.

UNC-Chapel Hill Students for a Democratic Society, in solidarity with over 75 other Universities and High Schools across the country (http://www.newsds.org/), is working shoulder-to-shoulder with the UNC Coalition Against the War to call on all students and community members stand up, walkout and speak out against the brutal war on Iraq. We will gather in the Pit at 12:30pm on Wednesday, March 19, 2008 for a rally and march.

The rally will include speakers from member organizations of the UNC Coalition Against the War and Iraq Veteran Against the War, Joe Gill. We hope that you will break from your daily routine on this day to join us in struggle against violence in all of its tragic forms.

The march will feature giant puppets, beats by Cakalak Thunder, radical cheer leading and more!
