[Antiracism] [Workers' Rights] 4/11 Cancellation

[WMass Jobs With Justice]

CANCELLED Saturday April 11 

RALLY AGAINST NAZI SHOW IN BOSTON!

            1pm, Columbus Park, South Boston. 

 

Thanks to those who called the VFW, and please tell folks not to call
anymore, as the VFW canceled the event. Below is their statement:

 

"Saturday, April 11th 2009 Cancellation Notice

 

The South Boston Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 6536 (VFW Post 6536) has
canceled the event slated for this Saturday, April 11th, 2009 and refunded
the deposit, originally paid by personal check, after discovering the nature
of the event, which conflicts with the ideals and values of the VFW Post
6536.  As Quartermaster, I have refused to sign and validate the event
approval form which is a requirement for all VFW Post hall rentals.  No
reschedule will be set at this function hall, so please, no inquiries.

 

Sincerely,

 

The Quartermaster"

 

However, the organizers of the rally at Columbus Park have reason to believe
that the neo-Nazis will try something west of Boston. If you are interested
in being involved, contact the ad hoc Boston Anti-Racist Coalition (BARC) at
antiracistboston at gmail.com.
