Description

What:KnowDrones.com, World Can't Wait and the National Campaign for NonViolent Resistance will be in Washington making a visual protest against US drone war.

kNOwdrones.com suggests content for teach-ins on US drone war & the State of the Union:

Why We Fight – To Stop Drone War During WW II, the US government commissioned a series of documentary films called “Why We Fight” to, as Wikipedia says, “persuade” the US public to support US involvement in that war.   Mauro Oliveira has created a powerful 25 – minute video that would be excellent for teach-ins, providing persuasive testimony by Americans on why the US should not fight drone war.

“Bugsplat” Powerpoint Also with respect to planning teach-ins, you may want to review a Powerpoint presentation created by Mathias Quackenbush. While some of the data needs to be brought up to date, the Powerpoint discusses basic issues with respect to war for resources, drone war and the connection between current wars and climate change.
