NO TO WAR
NO TO RACISM
The tragic events in the US have encouraged the warmongers and racists to
raise their heads.
Sadly, that has included incidents of harassment against Muslims and people
of Middle Eastern background in Wills.
Such incidents have included two Muslim high school students being forced
from a 19 tram because they were wearing scarves. A racist painted an
offensive slogan on the wall of Moreland Centrelink.
That is why all of us who want peace and respect among people of all
religions and none should make a stand.
Come to this rally, bring family and friends, encourage your group to
endorse it.
