Sign Up <https://secure.everyaction.com/e4WaxWwioUSJrxb3pLrEIQ2>An 
international anti-war zoom meeting on February 26 attended by thousands 
and organized by CODEPINK, Stop the War Coalition, the Campaign for 
Nuclear Disarmament and the No To NATO network agreed to an 
international day of anti-war action on Sunday, March 6. We call on 
everyone who opposes this war to take to the streets on March 6 in a 
massive display of global opposition to the war and the warmongers. The 
war in Ukraine is a disaster for the people of Ukraine and a terrible 
threat to us all, including increasing the danger of nuclear war. We 
oppose the Russian invasion and call for the immediate withdrawal of all 
Russian troops. We recognize that the expansion of NATO and the 
aggressive approach of Western states have helped cause the crisis and 
we demand an end to NATO expansion. We also oppose sanctions that will 
harm ordinary Russians and call on all countries to welcome refugees 
fleeing the war.
There have already been many anti-war demonstrations in Russia and many 
other countries. What we need now is a massive, unified response by 
peace-loving people around the world to say No to War in Ukraine; Yes to 
Negotiations and Peace.
In Boston, at 1:00 pm EST, we will meet at Park Street Station to rally 
for peace and say No to War in Ukraine; Yes to Negotiations and Peace!  
  We plan to hear speakers and march. /(The event was originally 
announced at the State House steps, so please note the new location!)/
