let them stay: a conversation with u.s. war resisters, featuring andy barrie

The War Resisters Support Campaign will hold a public event on May 21 that promises to be a memorable evening.

CBC radio host Andy Barrie, who came to Canada as a conscientious objector to the Vietnam War, will moderate "A Conversation with US War Resisters in Canada". It will be a town hall- style event, featuring a dozen or more Iraq War resisters answering questions from Andy and from the community. It's an opportunity to see into the heart of war resistance - to find out why these people joined the U.S. military, why they left, and what they hope for in Canada.

"A Conversation with US War Resisters" will take place at Innis Town Hall on the University of Toronto campus. If you can be in Toronto the night of May 21, this promises to be a memorable evening.
