World March for Peace - Bowery poetry club

I walked past the Bowery Poetry club last night and noticed a group of people standing outside. A flyer was stuck to the window: World March for Peace and Non Violence. Tamara informed that it takes place over several months and involves many cites. It starts on oct. 2 in Wellington, New Zealand and ends on Jan.2 in Punta des vacas, Argentina with a stop in New York on Nov. 30. It has the support of the Dalai Lama and Bob Dylan (what a surprise) and has as its mandate: withdrawal from occupied territories, anti-nuclear proliferation.

It is sponsored by World without Wars. Last night was their fundraiser.
