San Antonio calls for End to War

reflections from the national day of action:

Over 50 people met in front of the Federal Building to rally against the War. Many of then were youth that were excited and full of energy. A few local news stations were there and Che gave a few soundbites.We began marching and the youth lead it. As we marched through downtown our drums and chants sounded strong and full. Although many people did have a few opposing words, many more supported us and some even joined. Even though the tempo of the march did get slower, that didn't keep us from forgetting why we were there. The march ended with a moment of silence and some words of peace at the Veterans Memorial. Then we all walked over to the Ruta Maya, relaxed and had a cup of coffee. Since we had the djembe drums and a guitar we decide to celebrate that all around the nation people were coming together for the same cause: to end the war.
