Powerful Teach-in DVDs

Now Available from

Each of these compelling programs is yours for a donation of just $15

This past spring, on the 40th anniversary of the first teach-in against the
Vietnam War, UFPJ member groups <http://www.ips-dc.org/>the Institute for
Policy Studies in Washington, D.C. and
<http://www.globalexchange.org/>Global Exchange in San Francisco held
coordinated teach-ins against the Iraq War. These powerful evenings
featured presentations from veterans of the war, parents of soldiers who
have died in Iraq, and noted journalists and scholars.



<http://www.unitedforpeace.org/merchandise>DVDs are now available from
United for Peace and Justice of these two compelling events. Each of these
programs is yours for a donation of just $15. They are a tremendous
resource for anyone wanting a better understanding of the on-the-ground
realities of the war and its impacts here at home (more details below). The
DVDs are especially well suited for public screenings -- at local teach-ins
or community meetings, in classrooms, or any other suitable gathering.



Visit the <http://www.unitedforpeace.org/merchandise>merchandise section of
the United for Peace and Justice website to order these DVDs and check out
the other terrific educational materials now available for purchase,
including the highly acclaimed documentary films Arlington West and The
Miami Model and a wonderful new volume of essays, Stop the Next War Now:
Effective Responses to Violence and Terrorism. We also have a wide
selection of anti-war buttons, stickers, t-shirts, posters, and car magnets
… all resources that heighten the visibility of anti-war sentiment
throughout the country.



Your purchases will help support our work to end the Iraq war, including
the intensive organizing now underway for the
<http://www.unitedforpeace.org/fallmobe>September 24-26 mobilization in
Washington, D.C. Thanks for your much-needed support!
