Remember the Afghani Dead
Nottingham Stop the War Coalition | 03.11.2009 09:56 | Anti-militarism
At 2.00pm on Saturday, 7 November Nottingham Stop the War Coalition will meet in the Old Market Square to set up a campaigning street stall in order to give out leaflets and get people to sign the petition demanding withdrawal of British forces from Afghanistan.
At 2:30pm we will go up Friar Lane to Nottingham Castle in order to lay a wreath on the memorial in the grounds of the Castle to British soldiers who died in the Afghan War during the 1870s.
The wreath will be in remembrance of all the Afghanis killed by British forces in both the present and past wars. We will be carrying a large black coffin lid to represent the Afghani dead.
Do come along, preferably dressed in black, and get others to do so.
