After-work solidarity vigil at St Patrick's Cathedral again

category dublin | anti-war / imperialism | event notice author Wednesday May 17, 2006 02:08author by AWI Report this post to the editors

AFTER-WORK ANTI-WAR SOLIDARITY VIGIL, ST PATRICK'S CATHEDRAL, 6.30pm

The anti-war vigil held earlier this evening in solidarity with the Afghan hunger strikers was a modest success. In total, about 40 or so anti-war activists, from a wide range of groups (and none), turned up outside St Patrick's Cathedral. This was a wonderful turnout, when one considers that the vigil was called that morning. We expect the numbers to increase as word of these daily anti-war solidarity vigils spreads.

As of tomorrow, solidarity vigils will be held outside the cathedral at 12.30pm and 6.30pm daily. Please ensure that you attend at least one of these events. The 12.30 vigil is especially important.

Anti-war activists have decided to offer tangible support to the Afghan hunger strikers by continuing to organise the 6.30pm vigil. Residents Against Racism, and others, are putting enormous work into organising solidarity during the day and it is only right that the anti-war movement mobilises in support of their efforts. We must offer more than mere words.

At a meeting held in the wake of last night's (Tuesday) vigil, anti-war activists agreed to continue with the 6.30pm vigil. These will be held each evening between 6.30pm and 7.30pm, and it is very important that everybody makes a genuine effort to be there. If you are free during the day, go to the vigil at 12.30pm; if you are working, turn up at 6.30pm. But do something!

Please bring placards (preferably home-made and colourful!) and your solidarity to tonight's vigil. And spread the word!

Warm regards,

Fintan Lane,
Anti-War Ireland

Solidarity? Rather than merely saying "something must be done!". What do you think is the answer to this situation?

Solidarity

A lot of people stood about the place yesterday evening because they didn't have placards with them. We brought a handful to distribute, but, as the vigil was quickly organised, we didn't have many to go around. Moreover, it would lighten the load - and make the vigil more interesting - if people came with their own placards.

The more colourful and creative the placards, the better! Personally, I think homemade placards and posters are more striking than printed ones, but please bring whatever you have.

See you there! Is it possible to talk to those inside at this stage to express solidarity?
