Getting Organized

[TC]

I'm trying to organize a cluster of affinity groups in the eastern united states for protesting activities over the summer, at the july anti-war protests, the DNC, and the RNC. If you have a small group of political friends send me a PM and we can get in touch. If you don't but you want to, also send me a PM and we can arriange to meet up there.


And...if you just post online...maybe it might be time to start doing things in real life too. Stuff thats more exiting then handing out commie newspapers.

sounds good. Apparently, something is wrong with my computer because i believe my PM's are not being stored/sent. I tried to PM Xphile about something and I'm not sure he got it. Yes, i'm interested.

I live in New Zealand so I cant help you do the damage in the U.S. What is more exiting than handing out commie newspapers? jk do u hand out the militant?
Are you part of any commie groups in the U.S.?
Here theres a few commie groups, half of them hate each other. The anti-war movement needs to grow!!! Plant the seeds. What kind of activities do you get up to?
Here there is GPJA (global peace and justice auckland) who organise a lot of the marches. What kind of numbers do you get for marches?
Im full of questions and havent helped you ... sorry

I don't want to get into specifics about what we would do in upcoming protests but I can comment on the anti-war deomnstartions in the past. In the United States most large events are organized by International ANSWER which is a pro-resistance organization run by the Workers World Party. Some events are also organized by United for Peace with Justice, an anti-war organziation which is run by Leslie Cagan of the committees for correspondence, they have more recently just been stealing credit for ANSWER protests because their anti-war instead of pro-resistence position is more mainstream than ANSWERs. Before the war started these events could sometimes draw half a million in New York or Washington, 250,000 in San Fransisco and 100 thousands in LA. During the war protests have hada much smaller turn out and no demonstration has exceeded 100,000.


But this was sort of not totally the point of my post anyways.
