University of Washington Petitions to End the Wars

It's the start of a new quarter at the University of Washington and with that comes the ever-important recruitment tabling. To go along with the End the War theme for March, we created a memorial to honor the hundreds of fallen soldiers who were from Washington State and/or stationed here.

In an interesting twist, our usual "conservative" supporters passed us by, and the students who always run up to yell, argue, and defend Obama signed our petition. Many expressed their outrage over a Democrat-controlled government failing to show a change in foreign policy from the Bush Administration. We signed up a dozen new members and none of our materials blew away -- so all in all a good start to another eventful quarter in Seattle! 

Marc Knauss, president of the YAL chapter at UW-Bothell, created this slideshow to honor the Washingtonians listed above.

That's an awesome poster -- I really like the idea of writing the names in the outline of the state.
