Pagan Cluster Call to Action

Washington DC Mobilization

September 24 - 26, 2005

To All Who Are Called:

Please join us in Washington DC, September 24 - 26, to expose the truth about the G8, the IMF and World Bank, and the War in Iraq. Take each other's hands in flesh and in spirit. Join with us and with the ancestors to make visible the unjust consequences of globalization, war, and military occupation and their interlocking structures that create an Empire founded on lies and greed. Bring your voice, your presence, your body, and your magic. Spin webs and read the oracles.

Part of the work of the Pagan Cluster will be to call to the ancestors who have died as a direct result of the policies of greed: our fallen soldiers, the Iraqi dead, casualties of economic globalization, and Hurricane Katrina victims. We call to the ancestors to join us in our spells demanding justice and compassion instead of greed.

We ask the ancestors to join us in holding this administration accountable for a country grinding to a standstill under escalating fuel prices without any sustainable energy alternatives.

We ask the ancestors to join us in holding this administration accountable for a world of starvation, disease, ignorance, and death under the World Bank and International Monetary Fund economic polices.

We ask the ancestors to join us in holding this administration accountable for the broken hearts of the families of dead soldiers and Iraqis.

We ask the ancestors to join us in holding this administration accountable and for the preventable displacement, disease, and death in the wake of Katrina.

With the strength of the ancestors we demand:

  • Respect, care, and opportunities for everyone homeless, including those displaced by Katrina
  • Trade policies that recognize the rights of people everywhere to a decent life
  • Trade policies that recognize our dependence upon and protect natural biological and climatic systems
  • An end to the illegal and immoral war in Iraq
  • Return and care for the US soldiers
  • Sustainable energy policies that reduce global warming
