Global Day of Action - Greater Boston

Act Together for Another World on January 26, 2008

Grassroots Global Justice Alliance calls on all members and allies to support the World Social Forum call to action.

The Global Justice Movement will return to the streets in 2008. This coming January, for the first time in its 8-year history, there will be no World Social Forum (WSF). Instead the WSF International Council (IC) is calling on people throughout the world to organize local actions on January 26, 2008 to demand the right to another world.

The Boston May Day Coalition is spearheading a speak out against repression and the raids on migrant worker communities. Friday, January 25, 2008; 4:00 - 6:00 p.m. Location: JFK Building, Government Center, Boston.

This letter from the organizers of the Global Day of Action explains the thinking behind the event:

As you might already know, the next WSF, on January 2008, will not be
an event but a day of action all over the world.

The appeal for the Global Day of Action has been signed by all the WSF

Movements Network and also is being signed by thousands of
continental, regional, national and local groups.
