Thanksgiving Day Fast for Iraq |
To: Every AmericanWe the undersigned will fast on Thanksgiving Day as a protest against the US occupation of Iraq.
We will spend the fast with like-minded friends and family discussing the suffering of the people of Iraq, and how we are complicit as tax payers and citizens of the United States of America in maintaining the war and occupation.
We will use this time to write letters to members of our congress, senate, and the White House, expressing our demands.
We will refuse to consume and/or purchase food items traditionally associated with Thanksgiving Day: turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, etc., and will instead (resources permitting) donate the funds for this celebration to a local homeless shelter, or relief fund for Iraqi citizens, or some other fund which provides resources for those in need.
There is a webpage for comments, suggestions, or for connecting with other like-minded people which you can find at this address: http://ThanksgivingDayFast.blogspot.com
In solidarity with those who oppose the United States of America's war against the people of Iraq, occupation of their land, and theft of their natural resources,
