Stop the March to War in Korea! Build the Global People's Force for Peace!
Come learn about the hidden background to the crisis in Korea and stop the accelerating threat of nuclear war!
With Ramsay Liem, producer of the Memories of Forgotten War documentary, and Jill Stein, Green Party 2016 presidential candidate recently back from South Korea as part of a Solidarity Peace Delegation.
7:00 pm – 9:00 pm, Thursday, Oct. 5, Cambridge Friends Meeting, 5 Longfellow Park, Cambridge, Massachusetts
Hear how the current conflict on the Korean Peninsula is not an aberration, but rather an inevitable flashpoint of US military domination in a nuclear armed world.
We'll watch Ramsay Liem's short documentary, Memories of Forgotten War, showing the brutal history of the unresolved conflict that lacks a peace treaty even today. And we'll discuss continuing US provocations - the US nuclear first strike policy against North Korea and invasion rehearsals - that have helped incite North Korea's nuclear weapons development.
We'll discuss immediate actions to de-escalate the conflict and long term solutions needed on the Korean Peninsula and in raging conflicts around the world: demilitarization, nuclear abolition, sovereignty, human rights and reconciliation.
Come build a people's force for peace, and stop the global corporate force for war!
