The world is poisoned with US militarism, Galway Food Not Bombs strives to be one of its antidotes?

Our initial two hour stint has gradually stretched, so that yesterday we spent four-and -a- half hours behind the field kitchen, buoyed by a constant stream of favourable comments from the public and heartened to do the same, even more so, next Sunday.

Well done, FNB, keep up the good work. As Howard Zinn says, every small act is important (with a slight paraphrase).

Time to go stick this on our school's Social Action Notice Board.
