Stop FBI Repression! National Days of Action October 4 & 5
Posted on September 30, 2010 by Committee to Stop FBI Repression
Actions to Stop FBI Repression Take Place Across the Country! Further actions
planned for coming week on October 4 and 5
Thousands have come together in response to the FBI raids on seven homes and an
anti-war office on Friday, September 24, 2010. Across the country organizations
and individuals are standing together to protest the United States government’s
attempt to silence and criminalize anti-war and international solidarity
activists.
Jess Sundin said, “These raids and subpoenas are an attack on anti-war and
other progressive movements. It is an attack on our freedom to speak, our
freedom to assemble with like-minded people, and our freedom to tell the
government that their actions and policies are wrong. It is an attempt to clear
the way for more wars and occupations of other countries by the U.S. military.”
Protests against the intimidation and harassment have taken place or are
planned for 39 cities across the country. From Minneapolis and Chicago ,to Los
Angeles, Atlanta, Kalamazoo MI and Dallas Texas, The response has been
tremendous an continues to grow.
We are calling for further actions to take place in the coming week as the
first Grand Jury Subpoenas call for activists to appear on October 5.
Monday October 4 : Call President Obama at 202-456-1111 and U.S. Attorney

Steff Yorek, a long-time antiwar activist and one of the activists whose homes
was searched said, “The assistance and support we have already received has
been tremendously encouraging, with your help we can stop this outrageous
fishing expedition and attack on progressive movements.”
