This link brings you to a photo of the KKK marching down Pennsylvania
Avenue in Washington, DC in 1928. Evidently they were able to get
a permit.

With many thanks to Kwame Somburu for supplying the link. This site
has a plethora of information about the KKK.... Bonnie Weinstein,
Bay Area United Against War

According to the A.N.S.W.E.R. Washington, DC news conference
covered live on CSPAN on Friday, Dec. 17, the U.S. government is not
allowing antiwar/anti-Bush protestors onto Pennsylvania Ave. along
the inauguration route.

A.N.S.W.E.R. reported, there are three types of tickets available for the
inauguration, Group A, is for personally invited guests; Group B, is
for contributors to the Bush campaign (for both of these groups
a list is carefully checked before tickets are sold;) tickets for Group C,
for the general public, are not available. None. They are simply not sold.

The Government, in a stalling move, has not denied permits to
A.N.S.W.E.R. for space for counter demonstrators, rather they are delaying
as long as possible with the knowledge that the longer the permits
are denied, the harder it will be for people to make arrangements to
come to DC to protest. If and when permits are officially denied,
A.N.S.W.E.R. declared they would challenge the government legally
as they did in the last presidential inauguration "celebration."

We have a constitutional right to protest the inauguration. BAUAW
encourages all to show up in DC and come to Pennsylvania Avenue
with your signs and banners and express your opposition to Bush
and to the War.

We demand, along with A.N.S.W.E.R., equal access along the rout
for all. We have a right to protest our government or any of its
official representatives. Nothing gives the government the right
to disallow legal and peaceful protest.

If you can't go to DC, come out Jan. 20, 5pm, Civic Center, SF. in
solidarity with all protestors in Washington and everywhere who
oppose this war.

We are encouraging everyone to participate somehow by wearing
buttons and signs at work, at school and on the bus; hold banners
at freeway entrances, and crowded shopping areas etc. on
Jan. 20. Students should hold rallies and march to the Civic Center.

Come to our next meeting and pick a place to flyer or table for
Jan. 20 or hold a sign during the day, on Jan. 20 if you can.

NEXT BAY AREA UNITED AGAINST WAR MEETING:

SATURDAY, JANUARY 8, 11AM
CENTRO DEL PUEBLO
474 VALENCIA STREET
(NEAR 16TH STREET IN SAN FRANCISCO)
