Take The Pledge
"I pledge that if any U.S. troops, contractors, or mercenaries remain in Afghanistan on Thursday, October 6, 2011,
as that occupation goes into its 11th year, I will commit to being in
Freedom Plaza in Washington, D.C., with others on that day or the days
immediately following, for as long as I can, with the intention of
making it our Tahrir Square, Cairo, our Madison, Wisconsin, where we
will NONVIOLENTLY resist the corporate machine by occupying Freedom
Plaza until our resources are invested in human needs and environmental
protection instead of war and exploitation. We can do this together. We
will be the beginning." http://october2011.org/welcome
