So far I haven't heard anything and it seems strange that there would not be any. I'm in Seattle and we had some great protests before the war began.

You can find regional rallies through these links:

Local groups are also organizing. Here in Denver, the action is being primarily organized by The November 3rd Movement: http://www.3novembermovement.org/924.html
