New Orleans Effort to Mobilize Against US War with Russia Launched
The following is from the February 5 event announcement for the speak out and leafleting event coordinated by the Workers Voice Socialist Movement based in New Orleans:
U.S./NATO/Ukraine Planning Massacre of Donbass Anti-Fascist
Fighters
U.S. out of Eastern Europe, No More Wars for Oil!
Money for Children, Youth, COVID Relief Not War Profiteers!
Anti-fascist and anti-NATO protests in Ukraine
The organizers have this encouraging message for us all:
Proposed Action Plan
The following are some suggested steps:
Initial Launch Discussions Discussions can be in person and via zoom, etc.
Draft Statement of unity against US war and preparation for war including provision of weapons and troops to the Ukraine,
Mobilization at car caravan and rallies at US Senator and Represenatives offices opposing US war on Russia.
Issue Responses to events as they occur and escalate.
Create Network of organizations and individuals dedicated to joining this fight.
Staff with volunteers and ideally stipended staff to continue forward opposition to war.
Potential Organizational and Individual Resources
Approach and engage the organizations in New Orleans area to participate.

Funding
Critical to the success of this effort will be staffing a fully supported effort . While we can likely sustain an initial action without a significant budget – to continue forward we might want to consider some sort of fundraising efforts to sustain expenses for one or more staff to coordinate moving the effort forward.
