Details
As the expected 5,000 attendees flood into Beale Air Force Base on April 28 to be awed by the super fire power of the U.S. Empire at Beale AFB Air Space Expo, we will be there to greet them with a PEACE EXPO. Please join us as we color up the roadway into the base, reminding them of the truth of war. Can you pledge to join a 2 hr. shift (or more)? We need dozens of activists to spread colorful banners and signs for a mile stretch down the entrance road:
We’ll offer educational leaflets, and lemonade to those entering the “Glamorizing War” air show. Many attendees will bring their young children. Help us offer an alternative perspective.
