Open Call for Autonomous Direct Actions Sept.11th

GENERAL STRIKE SEPT. 11th - NO WORK, NO SCHOOL, NO SHOPPING.

It is not about a single issue. It is not an anti-war protest, a civil rights protest, an election fraud protest. It is not about torture, surveillance, corporate media, deportations, or the environment. THIS STRIKE IS ABOUT ALL THESE ISSUES AND MORE.

We all have different concerns, but we all have the same concern: we are being lied to and this government refuses to listen and is taking us down the road to despotism. Join other Americans in demanding truth, justice, and accountability.

For just a minute, pretend you aren't a jaded over-stimulated citizen from an over-developed country. For just a minute, pretend you really believe in something deeply - enough to not just post a response online but enough to get out into the streets, enough to act on it. The time has come to say NO MORE to the Bush Regime.

Meet in downtown Santa Cruz 12noon.

Bring: Signs/banners, food to share, a friend, instruments, memorials, etc.

Things to do before September 11th:
- make extra signs/banners
- convince a friend to join you in the strike
- convince a local business to close its doors the day of the strike
- organize your own music/pink bloc/street theatre affinity group.
- download a flyer at http://www.strike911.org and make as many copies as possible

Converge on city hall 6pm.
