   About Art Against War @ the Heartland
ART AGAINST WAR

When: Saturday, July 18, 5-8 PM
Where: Kimball Ave. Church, 2324 N Kimball

WHAT: Benefit Screening of Where We Stood: Chicago’s Resistance to the US War in Iraq (The story of March 20, 2003)
Followed by spoken word artists and live music
Refreshments will be available

DONATIONS: $10 – $20 AT THE DOOR



Come to a benefit film screening and party to raise needed funds for the lawsuit filed on behalf of the over 850 people falsely detained and arrested March 20, 2003 while protesting the U.S. invasion of Iraq.

On 3/20/03, the National Lawyers Guild immediately sprang into action, organizing pro bono legal representation for every arrestee who needed representation. They have been working tirelessly since to ensure that your right to protest is not criminalized in the city of Chicago. The attorneys filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of those detained and arrested. Then, on the eve of trial, the judge determined that the actions of the police were reasonable and dismissed the case. Now, the Plaintiffs are set to appeal the case, because this struggle is not over until justice is achieved. The dedicated lawyers, working through the Lawyers Guild, have given countless hours and plan to dedicate many more until the police and City of Chicago are held accountable

The appeal will cost money. Unlike the City attorneys, who have received approximately $4 million to deny you your right to protest, the NLG attorneys have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to protect the right to protest.

When will people stop hating, killing, stealing, and warring, and just hang out and dig some good tunes together?

Greetings,

Thank you for joining our circle of friends. Welcome. - We would like to invite you to visit our website and read about the variety of different free, healthy and life saving solutions, available right now, that we can all take advantage of, to save our one and only home Planet Earth, and to ensure a sustainable green future for all of us, the humankind.

We must keep in mind that, united we stand and prosper, but divided, we have been falling for many, many years. Let us learn how to unite and work together, let us learn how to transform the information offered on our website, into positive and constructive action, in order to solve humanity’s major ecological problems, One Problem, at a time. - Ranking number 1, on top of our list of major manmade environmental problems, obviously is the Global Warming.

Keep in mind that silence solves nothing, it never has, and it never will. Our silence will encourage more environmental devastation, violence and corruption at all levels, all over the world. Our silence will help to defeat and silent the peaceful ethical voices of reason and common sense. - It is our civic duty and moral obligation, to get involved and never be silent, to solve our many problems, by simply casting the light of truth and exposing the source of the problem, followed by enlightening educational measures to solve the problem through a peaceful conflict resolution.

There are only 2 ways of spreading the light of truth and hope, either to be the source of light, truth and hope, The Projector, or be The Mirror, that spreads and reflects the light of truth and hope to others, which one are you? - Next time you see the angelic smile of sweet, innocent little angels, our children, running around, growing up in this world, stop and think for just 1 minute, think about what kind of a polluted Home, we are raising them in, and the Home we are leaving behind for them.
