UPDATE: Sunday Oct 6 protest in L.A.

Not In Our Name

www.notinourname.net

We have an amazing lineup of 30+ speakers, musicians, spoken word, and more - in addition to the march itself.

Hip hop, folk, Sonali Kolhatkar from KFPK and the Afghanistan Women's Mission, Tibetan gongs, Blase Bonpane from the Office of the Americas, DJ's, ministers, and lots more I can't recall right now now! A diverse and talented lineup. Response has been huge, we've had to turn away speakers and musicians because we can't fit everyone in.

These protests are happening in twenty two cities so far. Among the other big cities are San Francisco, Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, Seattle, and, of course, New York City.
