PROTEST OF CONDI RICE IN SAN FRANCISCO

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was in San Francisco Friday, May 27, 2005 to speak at a Commonwealth Club event at Davies Symphony Hall.

The A.N.S.W.E.R. (Act Now To Stop War and End Racism) Coalition organized and sponsored a demonstration outside the hall.

A spirited crowd of 100's was there to:

..... protest her visit with a loud demonstration to SAY NO! to war and occupation in Iraq, Palestine, Haiti, Afghanistan and everywhere.

..... stop the U.S. threats and intervention against Cuba, Venezuela, Korea, Philippines, Syria, Iran and other countries.

..... protest the War at Home! Hands off Social Security!

Powerful speeches were given by ANSWER activists, Code Pink and representatives of many communities including organized labor, Bayview-Hunters Point, LGBTI/Queer, and more.

Some people from the ANSWER Coalition and from Code Pink got inside Davies Hall to voice their opposition to Rice's appearance and were arrested by police.

Money for Jobs, Education, Health Care, Affordable Housing... NOT FOR WAR!

BRING THE TROOPS HOME NOW!
