End the Wars at Home and Abroad
UNAC Conference in Secaucus, NJ May 8-10
Please come and experience a united movement for peace and justice inside this country and around the world.
The world is being ravaged by endless U.S. wars, both open and secret; life-threatening global warming and environmental destruction; devastating poverty and disease. Here at home we face unprecedented attacks on labor, immigrants, the poor and oppressed; a massive and racist prison-industrial complex; the increasing militarization of the police and an epidemic of police abuse as in Ferguson, Mo.; widespread domestic spying and an expanding “national security state”; trillions of dollars spent on the military to police the world and bail out the corporate 1 percent while we face severe attacks on the basic necessities of life.
We need to to see ourselves as elements of the same living network. This conference will be a convergence of people and ideas, a place to share our concerns, our dreams and our plans.
