China: Stop Burmese Killers!
New School Students–Faculty Initiative
CHINA: STOP BURMESE KILLERS!
China is in a unique position to promote change in Burma. But yesterday China vetoed the U.N. Security Council Resolution condemning Burma’s violent military rulers. What’s more, China continues to provide crucial military, economic, political, and diplomatic support for the Burmese military dictatorship. This failure of leadership betrays the trust the international community has invested in China, demonstrated by the selection of Beijing as the site of the 2008 Olympic Games.
We call on China immediately to:
Condemn the violent crackdown on Buddhist monks and other peaceful protesters!
Withdraw its support for the Burmese military government!
HERE’S WHAT YOU CAN DO:
JOIN A PROTEST in front of the United Nations General Assembly to pressure China to stop the military government’s killing, beating, and jailing of monks and other civilians!
WHEN: Friday, September 29, 2007 at 2.45 p.m. RAIN OR SHINE.
WHERE: 1st Avenue and 47th Street, New York City.
WEAR WHITE. BRING SIGNS.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED to help make signs and banners! Please meet on Friday September 29 at 10:00 a.m. at 79 Fifth Avenue, 7th Floor (Political Science Department of the New School for Social Research).
ORGANIZED by faculty and students of the New School.
For more information contact Khin Phyu Htway at kphtway@yahoo.com
------------
A panel discussion "The Crisis in Burma" will take place on Tuesday, October 2, at 8:00 PM, New School for Social Research, 78 Fifth Avenue, room 1107 ( entrance from 16th street)
