Urban Unrest

21 January 2007 | Pacifica | Ernesto Aguilar

Dear Friends,

I’ll be in Washington from Jan 27 to 30 to speak at a forum of the Congress’ “Out of Iraq Caucus” organized by Rep Maxine Waters. The forum is part of all the antiwar activities in Washington that week, which include a large march and rally on the Capital Mall January 27th.

Recently, I’ve been spending much of my time covering conditions for Iraq vets after they come home, resistance to the war from inside the military, and the strain the war is putting on our military after folks come home.

You may also be interested to know that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called my book, How America Lost Iraq (Tarcher/Penguin), “courageous … a frank and brave appraisal of one of the most potent issues facing our nation.”

I hope her support of my work represents support for pulling American troops out of Iraq, a message I look forward to delivering during my visit to Washington.

Yours,
Aaron Glantz
