CALL FOR ACTION: SF...the 'Combat Boots' exhibit coming...need help!

[diamond14]

'Eyes Wide Open' is a traveling memorial that exhibits a pair of empty combat boots for each of the over 1500 American soldiers who have died in combat in the Iraq war. The boots are tagged with the names of the soldiers. There is also a wall of names to memorialize the Iraqis who have been killed. The 'Eyes Wide Open Exhibit' is a project of the American Friends Service Committee and many co-sponsors.

San Francisco dates:
March 25th (Friday), 11:00 am with all-night vigil at Civic Center between Polk and Larkin; March 26th (Saturday), 10:00 am to 5 pm at Civic Center; March 27th (Easter Sunday), 10:00 am to dusk, at Union Square between Powell and Geary. More details about events scheduled this weekend. From March 29th-31st, the exhibit will be in Sacramento, CA.

Approximately 35 people are needed each day of the exhibit to help set up and breakdown the memorial, greet visitors, and make sure that none of the boots walk away. Organizers are also asking that people consider donating phone cards for military families and shoes to memorialize the Iraqi casualties. You can find out more about it and the tour schedule at
