November 12th
From: "Jan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The Social Action Committee at Tapestry, a Unitarian Universalist
Congregation, in Mission Viejo, plans to do a monthly second
Sunday afternoon video, preceded by lunch. Our next showing
will be on Sunday, November 12, where we will show Iraq for
Sale: the War Profiteers.
Acclaimed director Robert Greenwald (Wal-Mart: The High Cost
of Low Price, Outfoxed, and Uncovered) takes you inside the lives
of soldiers, truck drivers, widows, and children who have been
changed forever as a result of corporate greed in the reconstruction
of Iraq. Iraq for Sale uncovers the connections between private
security companies making a killing in Iraq and the decision makers
who allow them to do so.
Lunch at 12 pm and movie at 12:30 pm
25801 Obrero Drive #9
Directions to Tapestry: Take Interstate 5 to the Alicia Parkway
exit. Go inland on Alicia. Follow Alicia to Jeronimo Parkway and

which we work with in our community.
Books Not Bombs. BNB collects and redistrubutes reading

******************************************
#7 Every Sunday evening in Huntington Beach:
"Peace vigil every Sunday night at the foot of the
Huntington Beach Pier, 7-8 pm
It's hard for most people to imagine a world at peace.
We are a very small group of people who believe that
this is indeed possible and that peace will happen once
enough people believe that it can. So we stand at the
pier every Sunday night with a sign that says:
"Visualize World Peace. It's up to you".
We also believe in non-violence both physically
and in our thoughts. We will discuss peace and
non-violence with anyone who is rational and
smile quietly at those who aren't. We hold this vigil
in a spirit of dignity and respect for all as we try
to build bridges with those who don't share our
philosophy.
Please bring a candle or just help us hold up our
banner (no signs please; we have our banner!)
