With kids back in school, autumn is a perfect time for street-hitting activism to bubble up through the cracks in society. In the next few weeks, anyone seeking an interesting day-trip, a way to act on latent strains of idealism, or an excuse to visit friends at school in DC should check out one of the following events:

Declaration of Peace, Sept. 14-21

March on Washington, Sept. 15

People's March on Congress, Sept. 17

Protest Bush at the UN, Sept. 25

Encampment (in front of Congress) and March, Sept. 22-29

National anti-war mobilizations, Oct. 27

No snark from us in this department.
