HELP DISTRIBUTE WW ON OCT. 26 Bush's endless march to war is creating a new generation of political activists. Many of them marched last week displaying Workers World newspaper's headline like a poster: "EARTH TO BUSH: Read our lips-- No war on Iraq!" Soon Oct. 26 will be here--with giant demonstrations in Washing ton and San Francisco. We want to get WW newspapers into everyone's hands. It will be a huge job, and our readers can help. Of course, if people are demonstrating, then they already know they don't want this war. They probably know that Bush and his gang are lying through their teeth. They probably know that the war has to do with oil and profits. But they need and want answers to a lot of other questions. What is propelling Bush and Co. into a colossal military adventure? Why is the Democratic Party joining Bush's parade even though it's getting letters and emails running 100-1 against war? What has the economy got to do with it all? Most important, what forces in society can stop the war? How can the antiwar struggle be strengthened by linking up with the social movements of the workers and oppressed? How can we build a permanent organization for social change? They won't get any of this from the daily newspapers and television networks. If you've been reading this paper, you know that Workers World provides in-depth analysis of the class struggle in the U.S., often written by organizers in that struggle. We think you want this kind of information--about the antiwar movement, the labor actions on the West Coast docks and the fight for reparations from slavery--to get into more hands. Ditto on the ongoing activities to free Black political prisoner Mumia Abu-Jamal, the mobilizations for domestic- partner benefits for the lesbian and gay community, the battle to keep the right to abortion, the fight for the right to a job, and every other progressive struggle. To help with the distribution of the newspaper in Washington and San Francisco, look for the Workers World banners and literature table at the gathering site. Come by to pick up newspapers for distribution. Try to let us know in advance if you'll be helping out. For more information, call (212) 627-2994 on the East Coast (ask for Marsha) or (415) 826- 4828 on the West Coast. Or send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] This struggle will continue. If you would like to get out newspapers in the future at activities in your area, contact us at the phone or email addresses above. Let's answer Bush's lies by building the circulation of Workers World. It's the best antidote to militarist poison. - END - (Copyright Workers World Service: Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this document, but changing it is not allowed.
