The VFP National convention took place near our nation's capital at the University of Maryland's College Park Campus between August 5 -9, 2009. More than 350 people attended the 5 day convention. Members of Veterans for Peace were joined by Iraq Veterans Against the War, Military Families Speak Out and others for the packed schedule of meetings, plenary sessions, cultural events, film screenings, press conferences and 42 workshops. Vietnam: American Holocaust was shown on the first night and was very well received.
How do we build the anti-war movement under the new conditions?
