National Rally to End the War

Saturday October 27th, United for Peace & Justice is organizing 11 regional rallies to protest the war and occupation in Iraq. Philadelphia is one of cities and is having a Human Chain for Peace which will begin assembling at noon and stretch across the city, right through Penn's campus. At 1pm, the march will begin to Independence Mall for the rally at 2pm.

Unfortunately, the weather forecast for Saturday is heavy rain. Regardless, I'm really looking forward to attending the day's events and hope that it rejuvenates the fledgling anti-war movement. Penn Against War is organizing the 36th to 37th block of Locust and hopefully there will be a good presence of students.
