Fr. Roy Bourgeois is founder of School of the Americas Watch (SOAW), which works to close the School of the Americas, and actively challenges U.S. militarism in Latin America. In the past year Fr Roy and the SOAW movement protested at the gates of a U.S. military base in Colombia, met in Venezuela with activists from 19 Latin American countries to strategize a response to militarism and to build a culture of peace, and participated in the Social Forum of the Americas in Paraguay (and more). Come and learn about what’s planned for Washington DC in April and how YOU CAN BE INVOLVED!
