[pjw] INFO: Upcoming protests that we know about

[Peace and Justice Works]

Hi:
Quick update here-- the Sisters Of The Road march on Saturday actually 
meets at the Day Laborer Center at NE Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd and 
Everett St, not the Voz office; they have corrected their poster to 
reflect that information. They also updated the flyer to show the Women's 
march starts under the Morrison Bridge. I've included the revised list of 
events below with these edits.

Also, FYI, Portland Copwatch will have members observing police actions at 
the Friday 3:30 PM rally and march. If you see us and are willing to hand 
out literature promoting PJW's upcoming events (Feb 24 rally, Mar 17 
rally, annual meeting, and/or the Jan 28 Justice March) let me know, I 
will have flyers in my copwatching bag.
