Patricia
Foulkrod
spent two years creating The Ground
Truth, which the Los Angeles times hails as "a
thoughtful, sensitive film, perhaps the most emotionally wrenching
of all the Iraq documentaries." The Village Voice
calls Robert Greenwald's film, Iraq
for Sale, "a trenchant
indictment of war profiteering in Iraq and a memorial for those
not included in the military's death toll."

for Sale, Ground

During
a time when two new polls show the Iraqis want US troops out of
their country yet Congress unanimously voted to allocate 70 billion
dollars for the war in Iraq, we need to ramp up the pressure and
let our current candidates know we will not allow such injustice
to continue. Our house parties will raise
awareness and create community during the month of October so we'll
be organized and energized and ready to make change during the November
elections. Please join us—together we'll inspire
our communities to create a more just and peaceful future.
Party
on, Peacemakers!
