Traveling to School of America’s Watch Vigil
November 20, 2014
Next week Thursday on the 20th, a group of 16 people from the Kalamazoo Peace Center (KPC) at WMU are headed to Fort Benning, Georgia to the School of America’s Watch Vigil, which is a yearly gathering of peacemakers and shakers that demand that the School of Americas (now WHINSEC), closes. WHINSEC is a school that is paid for by the tax dollars of the American people, that specifically exists to teach local and international people violence, torture tactics, war mongering, and terrorism.
Every year this trip is a bonding experience for everyone involved, where we learn, grow, get energized, have fun, and get inspired to dismantle the war machine.
The KPC seek funds every year from various sources, but are still short a few hundred dollars. If you would like to contribute to travels, growth, and creation of peacemakers and leaders, you can mail a check addressed to the Kalamazoo Peace Center at 2101 Wilbur Ave Kalamazoo, MI 49006. It would be greatly appreciated.
