Breaking News: It's Official, UFP&J Caves. Anonymous Alternate Call Issued 	
by The Latest http://nyc.indymedia.org/feature/display/97856/index.php
21 Jul 2004 (with info from the AP):
Despite 75% of New Yorkers believing that United for Peace and Justice
www.unitedforpeace.org should hold its August 29th rally in Central Park,
today the organization caved in to city demands to use the West Side highway.
"We need to move on, so we decided to take the high road here," said Leslie
Cagan, leader of United for Peace and Justice, at a City Hall news conference.
Meanwhile, an anonymous call
<http://nyc.indymedia.org/newswire/display/97791/index.php> has been
issued to go to Central Park on the morning of August 29th.

"Come to Central Park on the morning of August 29th, gather in affinity
groups at a location of your choosing (see a preliminary menu below),
and do your thing from there – a feeder march to the "official" protest,
arts in action, a people's park picnic, whatever.

We are aware of the importance of the days of action being planned for
August 30 and 31, and of all of us being able to stay in the streets for
as long as possible. So we encourage people to play it as safe as
possible for the morning, and to keep in mind that any gathering of over
20 people may be grounds for early roundups.
...
Another A29 is possible. We declare that all of our city will be a free
speech zone that day."
