From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Campaign to Shut Down the War Machine is a campaign that aims to end the U.S.-led wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, by getting the population of the United States to hold a general strike on March 19, 2007.
The campaign was iniated by the Free People's Movement and it's youth wing, the Revolutionary Youth. Since being launched in 2006, the campaign has drawn the endorsements of Author Michael Parenti, Ph.D., Author Mickey Z, Professor Ward Churchill, a group in the United Auto Workers, the Irish Republican Socialist Movement, several musicians, and two General Membership Branches of the Industrial Workers of the World, among others.
Organizing for the campaign has also gone on outside of the United States, namely in the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia.
