Featuring Iraq war veteran Michael Prysner

When Iraq War veteran Michael Prysner joined the U.S. Army at 17
years old, he needed employment and education, and believed the lie
that the U.S. military stood for freedom and democracy.

As part of the 2003 "Shock & Awe" invasion of Iraq, Prysner realized
his role in the Army "was to be the oppressor, and to clear the way
for U.S. corporations." He separated in 2005 and has since dedicated
his life to the anti-war movement.

Prysner is a member of the Party for Socialism and Liberation and a
co-founder of March Forward!, an organization of veterans and
active-duty service members who stand against war and racism, and for
social justice here at home and abroad.

Please join us and our featured guest speaker, Michael Prysner, as he
describes his journey from a soldier in an imperialist army to
anti-war activist and fighter for justice.
