... PLUS weekly MAWO organizing meeting!

=====================
Wednesday May 31
6:30pm
at the Britannia Community Center (1661 Napier St - on Commercial Drive at
Napier St)
=====================


"Supporting First Nations Struggles and Building Community Unity" will 
feature Indigenous antiwar activists reporting back from the 14th Annual 
Western Shoshone Defense Project Spring Gathering. The Western Shoshone 
Defense Project organizes to affirm Newe (Western Shoshone – in the US state 
known as Nevada) jurisdiction over Newe Sogobia (Western Shoshone homelands) 
by protecting, preserving, and restoring Newe rights and lands against 
further colonial theft and for sovereignty of Indigenous nations. The report 
back will connect what Vancouver activists learned to our ongoing work 
against occupation abroad and at home on occupied land in Canada.

The workshop will be immediately followed by MAWO's weekly organizing 
meeting. MAWO has called for Thursday June 1st as a Canada-wide Day of 
Action Against the Canadian War Drive in Afghanistan. Vancouver’s 
contribution to the Canada-wide Day of Action will be held from 12:30-1:30pm 
at the Canadian Armed Forces Recruitment Center – 1070 W Georgia St. Join us 
at the MAWO meeting to organize for this day of action and our ongoing 
“Operation: Canada Out!” campaign work against the occupation of 
Afghanistan!
