That's right, the white power groups mainly from West
Virginia but also throughout the nation are converging
on our city to chant out and celebrate thier racist,
sexist, homphobic, and downright stupid heritage. 
They are getting confident by steadily building their
numbers at protests held every 6 months at the Israeli
embassy - last time they doubled the
counter-protestors (you ane me).

Let's Stop these NAZI's and stop their hate - come out
in support and bring your friends!  Everyone should
yell 'Get out of our town' to these racist clowns!

ON Sunday August 25 from 9-5pm, Charlie's Place
volunteers (hopefully YOU) and clients will be helping
to raise money to sponsor students walking in this
year's Help the Homeless Walkathon.  Last year, over
1200 DC-Metro students walked on behalf of Charlie's
Place earning the program close to $90,000. 

The 'Organic' Carwash (no chemically based soaps) will
be held at the Embassy Mobil - 2200 P Street. We
expect to service between 100-150 cars through the day
(POTENTIAL NEW ACTIVISTS).

Shifts will be two hours long 9am-11am, 11am-1pm,
1pm-3pm, 3pm-5pm.  We plan to have beverages and light
snacks for washers (please bring your own sunscreen).

WE NEED VOLUNTEERS!  If you can help for at least one
wash shift, please contact me.  AND help spread the
word to your car driving friends!

Rumsfeld, and having known ties to the bin Laden
family needs to have some light shed on their
operations.  Operations which promote imperialist
policies at the business level through arms deals,
construction of military installations in the Middle
East, and connections with Big OIL.
