Proposed Letter of Solidarity to NW SDS
Hey all,
As you may or may not be aware, during this past weekend there was major resestiance by Olympia SDS, Tacoma SDS and the Port Military Resistance when another stryker brigade was loaded at Tacoma. Last year there was a similar protest at Olympia, following which Lt. Watada became the first officer to refuse duty to serve in Iraq. Also, the military was chased out of Olympia, as they are now trying to load in Tacoma. I have drafted a proposed letter of solidarity to the NorthWest region for this action.
To Tacoma SDS, Olympia SDS, Port Military Resistance and their allies,
We, Connecticut College SDS, would like to congratulate you on your persistent actions during the weekend of March 9th at the port of Tacoma during the loading of the strykers. We hope that your actions will continue to build in force and multitude, just as this action was built upon the actions in Olympia last year. Your organizing and direct action in the face of direct police retaliation and infiltration is an inspiration for SDS chapters and the anti-war movement across the country. We all look forward to the day when this foolish war is over.
Yours in solidarity,
CCLeft, Connecticut College SDS
So I'm planning on emailing and snail mailing them a copy of this letter at the end of the week. Tell me if you want me to include your name on it.
Thanks,
Tristan
