MILITARY FAMILIES SPEAK OUT
"The Untold Stories of War: Surviving Loss and Organizing a Movement"

On this Memorial Day we will discuss the impact of the ongoing wars on
families with loved ones in the military. The anti-war movement must be in
direct relationship with those who are forced into the front lines. We will
listen to the stories of families struggling to end the wars and bring their
loved ones home.

Military Families Speak Out is an organization of people opposed to the wars
in Iraq and Afghanistan who have relatives or loved ones who are currently
in the military or who have served in the military since the buildup to the
Iraq war in the fall of 2002. Formed by two families in November of 2002,
they have contacts with military families throughout the United States, and
in other countries around the world. MFSO's membership currently includes
over 3,400 military families, with new families joining daily.
