URGENT CALL TO ACTION: Virtual Sit-In for Vieques, Wed. June 13th!

On Wednesday, June 13th, 2001, beginning at 9am EST and continuing for 24 hours, join the

Virtual Sit-In for Vieques at

http:\/\/www.freespeech.org\/provieques<\/a>

Why a Virtual Sit-In?

To support the demand that the US Navy cease their wargames and leave Vieques in peace. To add

our virtual bodies to the presence of the physical bodies of Puertorican activists who will

occupy the bombing ranges of la Isla Nena. To attract media attention by engaging in a new

form of protest action. To send a message to the United States government that we will not be

silenced until the people of Vieques can live without the sound of jets screaming overhead,

without the destruction of their beaches and coral reefs, without the high cancer rates caused

by depleted uranium found in bullets and shell casings, without the 'accidental' deaths of

civilians. To add our voices to the cry 'Not one more bomb! Leave Vieques in Peace!'

¡PALANTE!

¡LLAMADA A ACCIÓN: Sit-In Virtual Pro Vieques el 13 de Junio!

Miercoles el 13 de Junio, 2001, comenzando a las 9am y en cualquier momento durante los

siguientes 24 horas, ven a participar en el Sit-In Virtual Pro Vieques:

http:\/\/www.freespeech.org\/provieques<\/a>

¿Pero por que un Sit-In Virtual?

Para apoyar a la demanda que la Marina cesa sus 'juegos' de guerra y que dejen Vieques en paz.

Para unir nuestros cuerpos virtuales con la presencia de los cuerpos físicos de activistas

Boricuas que ocupan las tierras que bombardean en la Isla Nena. Para atraer la atención de la

prensa con una forma nueva de manifestación political. Para mandar un mensaje al gobierno de

los EEUU que nosotros no callamos hasta que la gente de Vieques pueden vivir sin el sonido de

aviones que chillan de arriba, sin la destrucción de sus playas y barreras coralinas, sin el

cancer causado por uranio agotado encontrado en las balas, sin las muertes de paisanos

'accidental.' ¡Para llevar nuestr@s voces al grito '¡Ni una mas! ¡Deja Vieques en Paz!'

¡PALANTE!
