</font><h3><b>The FBI Raids and Grand Jury Subpoenas: Know Your Rights
and Defend Our Communities<br>
Monday, November 15, 2010</b></h3><font size=3>On September 24th, 2010,
the FBI raided anti-war and solidarity activists in Chicago and
Minneapolis. During the raids, the FBI took computers, cell phones,
documents and personal family items. In total, 14 activists in Minnesota,
Illinois, and Michigan were subpoenaed to appear before a Grand Jury.
This type of investigation is a tool to repress our movements for social
justice and divide our communities. <br><br>
The 14 activists have all refused to testify in this Grand Jury
investigation. <br><br>
Join us to get the facts on Grand Juries, know your legal rights with the
FBI, understand why this is happening now, and learn how our communities
can respond! <br><br>
