From ACT:
About 300 people gathered Saturday in City-County Plaza in support of peace and an end to the war in Iraq.
The rally, sponsored by the WNC Peace Coalition and other groups, featured speeches by clergy members, activists and authors, along with music and singing performances.
"We do it every year to help influence public opinion and put pressure on politicians to end the war," said organizer Susan Oehler.
Families, church groups and residents holding signs proclaiming "I voted for peace" were among those gathered on the plaza. (more...)
