Armistice Day, November 11, 2014*
***
*San Jose, California*
Join us in Ringing Bells for Peace

*Tuesday, November 11 at 11am*
*At The Corner of Fourth & Santa Clara Streets

*
Veterans for Peace chapters across the nation are meeting on street
corners in major cities to celebrate the original ARMISTICE DAY by
ringing bells 11 times at 11:00 on November 11 as as was done at the
end of World War I, when the world came together in realization that
war is so horrible we must end it now.
 
Veterans for Peace Chapter 101 invites those with a personal or
organizational commitment to peace to join us in the ringing of bells on
the morning of November 11 to focus on the desire to end the horror of
 war rather than celebrate it.
 
After the solemn gathering, the 11am bell-ringing and a minute of silence
 there will be an opportunity to address the gathering with personal
reflections.

 Banners and signs are fine but it would be best if the ambience were more
 reserved until after the bell is rung.
