In August of this year, Cindy Sheehan made headlines around the world with her five-week vigil outside the Texas ranch of George W Bush. Her demand - a meeting with the President for an explanation of the senseless death of her son in combat in Iraq - was denied. Support for her struggle came from all over the US and the world and became a visible point of reinvigoration for the movement in the US against global expansionism and war.

On Sunday 2nd October activists around the US will be setting up camps at their Senate and other government buildings in solidarity with Cindy's struggle. In the UK, activists from various groups will be coming together in Grosvenor Square - site of the US Embassy - in a show of support for those across the Atlantic. Come to pray, dance, eat, and show our hope for peace and liberty.
