[olympiaworkers] SUNDAY! ALL DAY MUSIC AND SPEAKERS AT SYLVESTER PARK!

October 7th, is the 11th anniversary of the Afghanistan occupation & the 1st anniversary of the Movement that will END IT! 11 years ago, America used its collective pain from 9/11 to begin an occupation in Afghanistan. At the time no-one assumed it would go this long, cost this much or inflict this much suffering. 10 years later, Occupy Wall Street was born & Occupy Olympia sprung forth in solidarity.

Localization Not Occupation is a gathering that connects the dots between the Afghanistan occupation, the increasing inequality at home & the movement towards greater local responsibility. By itself, demanding that the politicians and corporations, both of whom are profiting from the war, end the war, is not enough. Localization builds community strength & demands we the people end the war & occupation directly.
