Today, we joined hundreds of thousands of people all over the world by protesting the US-led War in Iraq:

"March 19, 2006, is the Iraq war's third anniversary.

AFSC joins with global and local peace and justice groups in urging opponents of the Iraq war to organize events in their hometowns from March 15 to March 22."

There's a link on the AFSC web site to a terrific music video by Robert Cray filmed at a farm near Dover, New Hampshire, and showing AFSC's "empty boots" installation:
