Several businesses in Apollo Bay on Victoria's Great Ocean Road have
agreed to close down for one hour on Saturday 18 January in support of
the town's first anti-war march.
We are walking from the market to the Agricultural Show at 12 noon.
Police are organising traffic on the Great Ocean Road. This is a
community march for everybody, with speeches, skateboarders, banners,
drums and whistles so everybody can have their say.
Organiser, Yvonne Francis says it is amazing what people can do when
they get organised. We took 20 years, but we stopped logging in the
rainforests of the Otways. Noon is a very busy hour for Apollo Bay
shops and closing up is a fine commitment to make for peace. I do not
want to see people bombed in my name, this is the least we can do. In
every opinion page we read how people do not want to go to war, but
Australians will have to speak up loudly if they want to make a
difference.
