The Granny Peace Brigade
UC Room 313
11:00 AM - 12:00 PM

The Granny Brigade was birthed out of the effort of several grandmothers, ranging in ages from 59-91, who attempted to enlist in the US military on October 17, 2005. Their purpose was to replace grandchildren who had been deployed to Iraq. All of the women were arrested and charged with disorderly conduct. They were all acquitted after a six day trial and began their movement to stand for peace and not war.

Come hear the Grannies speak about their work!
