<br>
We would like to let the 'nvda-against-NATO' list know that, rather than going to Lisbon to demonstrate against the Summit directly, as we did in Strasbourg 2009, some of us are planning "Women Say No to NATO" activities in our local areas.<br>
<br>
In London we are preparing an action which will involve a team of women wearing T-shirts that together spell out the message SAY-NO-TO-NATO. We shall be performing in central London streets throughout the day of Saturday November 20, in what we intend to be a colourful and supportive addendum to the demonstration against the Afghanistan war planned for that same day by Stop the War Coalition. I attach the text of the leaflet (front and back on A5) of which we hope to distribute 1000 during our action, and the logo we have designed, which women everywhere are welcome to use. You can see a briefing on the action, and our background paper "Making NATO visible to women, making women's opposition visible to NATO" at the website <a href="http://www.wloe.org" target="_blank">www.wloe.org</a>. We will send you our press release and photos after the event, and hope you will include them in your retrospective accounts of the day.<br>
<br>
A similar action during the Summit weekend is planned by women in Sheffield, UK. And we have heard that women of Italian Women in Black will be demonstrating on November 20 as 'women against NATO' in the cities of Torino, Ravenna, Padova, Alba, Udine, Fano, Bergamo, Bologna and Verona. Also, Women in Black will be devoting its central London vigil on November 10 and 17 to the "Women Say No to NATO" theme, with a letter to the Prime Minister urging policy proposals for Lisbon.<br>
<br>
Wishing you great success with your activities before and during the Summit. We will be with you in spirit!<br>
<br>
Best wishes,<br><font color="#888888">
