The OCRC (Orange County Revolutionary Collective) would like to take the time to thank all of the people who came out on Saturday Jan. 18, 2003 in Yorba Linda, CA to march on the Nixon Library. It was truly an awesome event to be held in Conservative, Republican, and privileged Orange County. It was so awesome to see so many people of different races, ages, and groups come together to make the event a success. We held the protest at the march at Hurless Barton park because we really wanted people to be able to sit down and talk with each other, connect with each other and know that even behind this Orange Curtain there are plenty of people who are against war and will speak out against it.
This event was put together in less than 4 weeks, and this entire event was put on by the power of the people. We really wanted the communities that we live in to be involved, we wanted to make this event inclusive and non-hierarchal, we wanted others to be involved in every step of the organizing of this event and to be able to this from a grassroots perspective. There were no permits for this event and it was only put on with extremely small and limited resources, approximately only $50.00, but that's what made it so great. We all came together and showed that all we needed are each others voices saying loud and clear "No More War, No mare racist scapegoat, No more illegal roundups" We will hold our government accountable.
We would like to thank everyone that helped organize this event, it was put on mostly by youth from all over Orange County who took it upon themselves to do outreach for this event and help to organize.
Mostly we would like to thank all the families and people who came out from all over OC and other places to join us this past Saturday. It was a very fun event, and it also allowed for people to connect to one another.
We look forward to continuing the anti-war message from North, central, to south Orange County and ask that you join us towards these efforts, each time we do an event we can learn from the mistakes, grow and put on an even better event next time. All are welcome to participate and get involved.
Once again we would like to also thank all of the participating groups that helped us but this event on, and they include: Orange County Green Party, International Wages for Housework Campaign, LA, Iranian Students Union, Afghan Students Union,
Middle Eastern Peace coalition - Irvine Valley College
OCPC (Orange County Peace Coalition, POWER (People Opposing War, Empires & Rulers), Pakistani Students Alliance UCI, Anaheim Food Not Bombs, New Panther Vanguard Movement, Santa Ana Food Not Bombs, and Atlachinolli Front.
We are having a meeting this coming Thursday for feedback and dialogue with the community about this past Saturdays Nixon Library anti-war protest, you are all invited to attend.
The OCRC has meetings every Thursday at the same location, meetings start at 7:00 PM at the following location: 215 West 1st Street #205, Tustin CA

Nixon Library anti-war protest attracts 600-1000
people
By Duane J. Roberts
Orange County, California is usually not known for its
progressive politics, but today it was the home to one
of the biggest anti-war demonstrations in its history.
It is estimated that between 600 to 1,000 people
converged on the Richard Nixon Library in Yorba Linda
to express their opposition to the Bush
administration's planned war against Iraq.
The protestors participating in today's demonstration
ranged from soccer moms pushing strollers full of
young children to a contingent of Blac Bloc anarchists
waving their black flags.
Hundreds stretched out more than a half mile along
some of Yorba Linda's busiest streets and
intersections, reflecting a broad cross section of
American society.
It was clear to any passersby that persons of all
ages, races, ethnicities, religious beliefs, and
political ideologies were involved in this protest.
The demonstration itself offers strong evidence that
many different segments of the population are becoming
deeply disturbed by the actions of their rulers.
That it took place in one of the most right-wing
cities in Southern California shows that no community
anywhere in the country remains unaffected by the
growing discontent.
