Follow-up on Raleigh Walkout against the War

Tired of Racist criminalization of youth?

Worried about a future without good paying jobs or health care?

Sick of overcrowded, underfunded schools?

Come to an discussion and strategy session with Raleigh FIST to talk about how we need a movement to end this capitalist, crisis-prone, war machine. The elections and the Democratic Party are not the answer, we need a movement in the streets to meet the needs of the people.

Sunday, 6 - 8:30 pm at ACRe Space in Raleigh (822 Chamberlain St at corner of Mayview, near NC State’s campus)
