Midwestern Peace Summit (mid-March 2005, IUPUI)

[IndianaGreen]

The following is very preliminary being planned by peace activists. I redacted many of the details because they are still under discussion. I will post new information as it becomes available.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Midwestern Peace Summit

When: On 2-3 days in March 12-20, 2005 spring break time slot determined
to be most convenient for the largest number of participants.

Where: Indianapolis on the campus of Indiana University-Purdue
University at Indianapolis as well as cooperating institutions in the
city

Sponsors: Students for Peace In Iraq (IUPUI) and as many cooperating
university, religious, and community groups as possible.

Tentative Program: The summit is envisioned as a series of workshops,
lectures, art exhibits, cultural performances, and public
demonstrations on the need to find an immediate peaceful end to the
United States occupation of Iraq as well as to promote tactics for the
nonviolent resolution of other economic, political, and social injustice
confronting the world today. Indiana is a state with an abundance of
academic programs and religious, community, and activist groups
committed to peace. Let us take a lead in organizing the Midwest and the
nation for Peace. Indianapolis is centrally located and the IUPUI campus
has generously volunteered its facilities. This is an opportunity that
should not be missed.

Contact: (Redacted) on behalf of Students for Peace in Iraq
