Call to Action: Food Not Bombs at Arlington West

Orange County Veterans for Peace and friends are asking for a Food Not Bombs chapter to commitment to being at Arlington West in Huntington Beach every Sunday. Although Arlington West is about mourning those who die due to war they see the issue of poverty at home and how the war machine is tied into that especially at the beach where you can see the effects of U.S. Policy here and abroad. Thus they call for Food Not Bombs.

Arlington West sets up at 8am and start shutting down at 4PM. So perhaps coming between NOON & 1PM and ending between 2PM & 3PM. That'd be up to the Food Not Bomb Huntington Beach Chapter. Arlington West is located on 6th Street, just North of the Pier.



What is Arlington West ?

The visual image of hundreds of white crosses placed in the sand

representing the hundreds of fallen soldiers in Iraq has paused thousands to stop and reflect on the cost of war. Orange County Veterans For Peace is more committed, organized and able to carry on this memorial than ever before. We are calling on the anti-war movement in Orange County to again affirm your commitment to this project as we welcome your participation in a spirit of peaceful understanding and trust. Please come out onto the sands of Huntington Beach and join us as we wage peace there.
