Dear Friends,
Buffalo Resistance Weekend has begun! after some wonderful events all this week!
Remembering Rev. Dr. King’s legacy of nonviolent direct action, we’ll join together this weekend with ongoing movement-building and advocacy in the weeks, months, and years to come! We will not sit idly by while some are building what looks like a 4th reich of facism (big business running the government), racism, and kleptocracy!
We are standing up for human rights, civil rights, justice, solidarity and true nonviolence (including stopping state-sponsored violence at home and aboard) – We shall overcome!/Si, se puede!!
Peace/Salam/Shalom/Shanti!! Nya weh/Asanti/Gracias/Tashakor/Thanks!!
