Hi John,

Why is the Kennedy Center helping former President George W. Bush artwash his war crimes by exhibiting his paintings of veterans?

Join us Monday, Veterans Day 2019, for a die-in protest to tell the Kennedy Center and the world that there is nothing artistic about the death and destruction Bush created using lies to take us into the Iraq war.

What: Protest the artwashing on George Bush's war crimes
When: Monday, November 11, 2019, Veterans Day, 3PM EST
Where: Outside the Reach at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, 2700 F Street, NW Washington, DC 20566
The Reach is located at the southernmost end of the Kennedy Center campus, to the left of the main Kenndy Center entrance

During Bush's presidency, he started the ongoing "Global War on Terror," invaded Iraq based on false pretenses, codified torture into U.S. law, watched as New Orleans drowned in the aftermath of Katrina, used panic over gay marriage to get re-elected in 2004, crashed the U.S. economy, fired U.S. attorneys who were critical of his administration, set up an extrajudicial prison in Guantanamo, scrapped the Kyoto agreement, and did much, much more. Weapons manufacturer, Boeing, is the sponsor of the exhibit.

See you on Monday at 3:00 PM!

Towards accountability,
Ariel, Clara, Leonardo, Medea, Michelle, Paki, Teri, Tighe, and the entire CODEPINK DC team
