Hi All, Here is a meeting coming up one Wednesday, which will be awesome. Here is Bush, willing to murder lots of innocent adults on completely racist or social-economicalist terms, yet he screams that abortions are murder and he is trying to give adult rights to a fetus! Where are these rights for the 40% of African-American males who make up death row?!This is just a perfect example of Bush's conservative attacks on innocent, working class Americans. Hope to see lots of you there! Mary The Struggle Against the Death Penalty Wednesday, April 7th at 7:30pm UVM Lafayette 108 Over 580 people have lost their lives since the death penalty was brought back into practice by the US government. Although nearly 20% of these people have been proven innocent post-mortum, this obscene practice continues! It is an attack on workers, as 90% of defendents can't afford decent legal defense; it is a racial attack with African Americans being disproportionately represented on death row. How can we end the death penalty? Massive grassroots action saved the life of Kevin Cooper and won a moratorium on all executions in Illinois. Come learn about the power of protest, and help abolish the death penalty! Featuring: Marlene Martin, National Director of Campaign to End the Death Penalty and a live call-in with a member of the former Illinois Death Row Ten Sponsored by the International Socialist Organization, UVM Department of English, and Students Against War Contact [log in to unmask] or 864-9648 for more info --
