What You Can Raise Instead of the US Flag?

VVAWAI | 24.10.2001 19:45

The U.S. flag and its colors are being used in an attempt to whip up patriotism and convince people that there is a "ground swell" of support for the U.S.'s "War on terrorism". People who want to express their grief for the victims of the 9/11 attacks, as well as the victims of the current bombing campaign against Afghanistan, should put down their flag and instead take up the GREEN & BLACK campaign

GREEN has been used in areas around the country to support people who come under racist attacks. It identifies us as allies so that people know who to go to for protection should they need it.
BLACK symbolizes loss of life, sadness, mourning. In this case, the loss of life of thousands in the 9/11 attacks, the current bombing raids, as well as the thousands more innocent people who die at the hands of U.S. imperialism around the world every day.
We call on you to stand with the people of the world against this war

WEAR GREEN AND BLACK!
The Arab People are Not Our Enemy They Are Our Sisters and Brothers
Our Grief is Not A Call to War
