[pjw] EVENTS: Three events around celebrated activist S. Brian Willson

[Peace and Justice Works]

Hi

There are three events involving local activist / Viet Nam Veteran S. 
Brian Willson coming up in the next few weeks. The third one is being 
organized by the PJW Iraq Affinity Group (and you will get reminders about 
it), on Sunday July 10 following the PJW quarterly meeting.

The first is the premiere of a movie about Brian coming up a week from 
this Sunday (July 3) at the Clinton St. Theatre; the next day (July 4) 
there's a fundraiser for the Veterans for Peace doubling as a 75th 
birthday party for Brian, and then there's our event on the 10th, focusing 
on his recent trip to Viet Nam.

Spread the word!

Tickets $10 at The Door!

Brian Willson, Bo Boudart & Frank Dorrel will all be present at this 
Special Premiere Screening and participate in a Q&A after the film.


Vietnam veteran S. Brian Willson paid the price for peace as he was run 
over and nearly killed by a military train during a non-violent protest in 
1987. Since then, he has not stopped calling attention to the US 
government's defiance of international law through waging endless illegal 
wars. PAYING THE PRICE FOR PEACE exposes the truth about the United 
States' addiction to war and the lies it perpetuates in order to wage 
ongoing violence. The film features the voices of other high-profile 
antiwar activists, including many military veterans.
