National Day of Protest: NO WAR WITH RUSSIA!

March 2, 2022 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

National Day of Protest: NO WAR WITH RUSSIA!

 Mississippi River Bridge

In 1999, WAMM’s End War Committee partnered with other local activist groups to initiate a weekly vigil on the Lake Street and Marshal Avenue bridge in St.Paul. Originally in response to the U.S. and NATO bombings in Yugoslavia, the vigil has continued weekly with different U.S. sanctions, interventions, and wars to protest.

Every Wednesday for over 20 years—rain, shine or below zero temps—activists in the Twin Cities have gathered to stand in solidarity with all those affected by U.S. militarism and to call for peace.

This Wednesday, we bring together our weekly End War Vigil for a very important, national cause: together we shout “No War with Russia!”

Please wear a mask and maintain social distance!

Signs provided or bring your own.

Please view UNAC’s National Call to Action page to learn more about how you can help.

Sponsored by WAMM’s End War Committee and endorsed by the Anti-War Committee and the MN Peace Action Coalition.
