Codepinkers came from around the Bay:

  • Tim from Fremont
  • Karen from Petaluma (thanks for making reusable antitorture banner)
  • Susan H, Eleanor, Jane, GG and Curt (WCW) from Berkeley & Oakland
  • Thanks to Curt for wearing orange jumpsuit & black hood the entire hour!

From our National Site

The national CodePink organization organizes for justice for Iraqis and to hold war criminals accountable. CodePink actively opposes the U.S. war in Afghanistan, torture, the detention center at Guantanamo, weaponized and spy drones, the prosecution of whistleblowers, U.S. support for the Israeli occupation of Palestine and repressive regimes.

Rooted in a network of local organizers, CodePink's tactics include satire, street theatre, creative visuals, civil resistance, and directly challenging powerful decision-makers in government and corporations. And, of course, wearing pink!
