Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned/ Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.

We will be adding several movement-building workshops to our program, and plan to examine1968 after 40 years.

Weds. March 19th gather at 7:00a BLOCKADE THE IRS http://www.warresisters.org/IRSinDC.htm On March 19, 2008, we will set up a nonviolent blockade of the national Internal Revenue Service headquarters in Washington, DC, as part of the day of actions against the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Just as military recruiters supply the bodies for the war, the IRS supplies the funding. Just as some soldiers have the courage to resist the war, we — as tax payers — should have the courage to resist paying the taxes that send soldiers to war. We call on all war opponents to help dramatize our opposition and to disrupt business as usual by joining this nonviolent blockade. For at least this one day — March 19, 2008 — we need to create a disturbance in the smug complacency of the

5 years of war! On this sober anniversary, we will join hands to symbolize our unity in the call for peace and for funding our communities, not war! Join us to form a human chain on 14th St. from Ave. A to 11th Ave. in Manhattan, on Saturday, March 22. Bring your friends, your banners, your signs. We will stand, hands joined, from noon to 1:00. Then both ends of the line (at 11th Ave and Ave A) will march in towards Union Square with each block filling in as the march goes by. We will converge near Union Square around 2:00 for a somber commemoration of the casualties of this immoral war. Bring photographs and flowers. Later this week, there will be photographs that you can download from our website: US service people, Iraqis, wounded vets, victims of Katrina, etc. The bells will toll, we will stand for 5 minutes in silence and then Taps will be played.

Socialist Party USA (NYC) - Liberation Film Series FREE SCREENING "SiCKO" The words "health care" and "comedy" aren't usually found in the same sentence, but in Academy Award winning filmmaker Michael Moore's new movie 'SiCKO,' they go together hand in (rubber) glove. In the tradition of Mark Twain or Will Rogers, 'SiCKO' uses humor to tell these compelling stories, leading the audience conclude that an alternative system is the only possible answer. The event includes a presentation by the grassroots healthcare rights group Private Health Insurance Must Go! - http://www.phimg.org/joomla/ For more information on “SiCKO”: http://www.michaelmoore.com/sicko/index.html http://going.com/SiCKO For more information on the Socialist Party USA (NYC): http://www.sp-usa.org/ Saturday, March 22, 2008, 4:00 pm
