The White House has tried hard to silence the voices of those who question the
war by calling them unpatriotic and unsupportive of the troops. But military
families, veterans, and workers who are paying the price of a misguided war in
Iraq are breaking the silence. Join us for an evening of discussion and
organizing around the demand, “Support our troops – by bringing them home!” Find
out too how you can get on the bus to NYC for the protest outside the
Republican
National Convention.

Presented by the Bring Our Troops Home (BOTH) Coalition including the American
Friends Service Committee, the Burlington Peace and Justice Center, Military
Families Speak Out, the International Socialist Organization, and the
Burlington Anti-War Coalition (BAWC)

Free and open to the public with a special welcome to families of soldiers,
veterans, and union members. Help us build Military Families Speak Out and US
Labor Against War in Vermont.

Peace, social justice, and progressive political groups: Please contact Jim
Ramey (802-326-4125; vtslacktivist-/[email protected]) for details on tabling at

the war. Stayed tuned for an announcement of the exhibit’s downtown Burlington
