Iraq Veterans Against the War was founded by 6 members of the US military who felt that they could not remain silent about what they had witnessed during the war in Iraq. Since then, our membership has expanded into the thousands and our work has evolved to address militarism at its root. On October 2, we will be celebrating 10 years of resistance against US occupations and militarism at home and abroad.
The event includes music and poetry performances by members and supporters as well as updates on our work, a light buffet and drinks. Each guest can enter a drawing to win a door prize with IVAW shirts, books, and other merchandise. There will be opportunities to contribute to our work by participating in our silent auction, the pre-sale of the ground-breaking Fort Hood Report, art created by IVAW members and other artists, and by taking part in our community. We hope to see you there!
