============================================
On Sunday, August 29, one of the biggest and most important protests in a
generation will take place in New York City: a massive march and rally on
the eve of the Republican National Convention, organized by United for
Peace and Justice.

If you’re alarmed by the direction that the Bush Administration has taken
this country, you will want to make your voice heard at this historic
gathering, where we will march against war, greed, hate and lies. Already,
many thousands of individuals and hundreds of groups – anti-war, civil
rights, immigrant, religious, labor, feminist, environmental, and many more
– are planning to participate in this demonstration.

United for Peace and Justice has just launched a new section of our website
with resources to help you mobilize for the August 29 RNC protest. At
http://www.unitedforpeace.org/rnc you will find:

* Downloadable leaflets that you can photocopy and distribute in your community
* An online endorsement form
* Links to housing and ride boards
* Information on ordering posters
* Updated information on our fight for a protest permit

The Republican National Convention – and the protests – will be covered by
media outlets around the world. It is vital that we bring the largest
possible number of people to New York City on Sunday, August 29 to speak
out against the actions and plans of the Bush Administration. Additionally,
United for Peace and Justice will have a presence at the Democratic
National Convention in Boston in late July, to once again promote our
vision of politics based on justice, fairness, and peaceful solutions to
conflict. (See http://www.unitedforpeace.org for details about the
Democratic Convention activities.)

WHAT YOU CAN DO:

1) Encourage your friends, coworkers, and family to join you in NYC on
Sunday, August 29. Forward this email to everyone you know who cares about
peace and justice.

2) Start making your plans now to come to New York City for the August 29
RNC protest. Visit http://www.unitedforpeace.org/rnc for links to ride and
housing boards.

3) Ask your organization – be it a community group, a labor union, a
church, or other organization – to endorse the August 29 RNC protest. Visit
http://www.unitedforpeace.org/rnc to endorse.

4) Photocopy and distribute leaflets for the August 29 RNC protest. Visit
http://www.unitedforpeace.org/rnc to download.

5) Donate! We urgently need to raise $200,000 to make the August 29 RNC
protest a success. Make an online credit card donation at
