AN AFTERNOON WITH BRIAN WILLSON At this critical juncture in American history, as the United States stands on the brink of a major conflict in Colombia that will now serve the purpose of "uniting" a divided nation under a new President, this special event is drawing increasing attention from all over the country. It may be the kick-off of an anti-war movement before the next war begins in January. In 1987, while peaceably participating in a well-publicized human blockade with two other veterans, Brian lost his legs when run over by a U.S. Naval train accelerating to over 3 times its 5 mph speed limit. The train was carrying lethal weapons destined for murdering civilians in Central America. Brian will talk about his journey beginning in Vietnam, then taking him to Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala, Cuba, North and South Korea, Mexico, Palestine, Israel, Haiti, Panama, Iraq and Colombia! It is imperative that we stop all U.S. military intervention and economic exploitation, so that the majority of people on the Earth might experience Peace through Justice. WHERE: Patriot Hall 1916 S.
