Hi,

I visited my campus antiwar group today and had a chance to speak at the end about Military Families Speak Out. I also encouraged any of them with loved ones in the military to join us, increasing our numbers and our voice. I did a little sensitivity training about how to be opposed to this war but not against those young men and women in the military. Afterwards, I found out that one young man there, has 1 month left on his military contract, he was very pleased with what I had to say. Also others expressed similar feelings. Another student works at the college radio station and wants me to do a ten minute slot a week from Sunday.

A student at Rochester Institute of Technology has invited me to be a panelist at a teach-in on campus this coming Tuesday.

There are plenty of opportunities for MFSO to speak, people want to hear what we have to say. So approach your churches, antiwar and peace groups in your area, schools, the media, etc.. We have a unique voice and a special role to play at this moment in history, lets not let the opportunities slip by.

Love and peace, Jeff McKenzie co-founder MFSO
