Several antiwar demonstrations are scheduled for the week after the October 8 demonstrations in London, DC, Chicago, San Francisco, and elsewhere. Below are links to key demonstrations.

In addition to the rally, at 9:30 AM there will be a press conference to support the City Council resolution to "Bring the War Dollars Home" on the 5th floor, outside City Council chambers where the City Council meeting begins at 10 AM. We oppose any continuation of U.S. wars and occupations in Iraq, Afghanistan and other countries. The billions of dollars expended in this way are needed to meet economic and social needs here at home.
