The Muslim Solidarity Committee and Project SALAM (Support And Legal Advocacy for Muslims) invite you to join us for this rally and march remembering the sixth anniversary of the arrests of two Muslim men from the Albany community and all Muslims preemptively prosecuted by the US government. Speakers at the Mosque will discuss this case and how they are used to generate fear of Islam in order to justify war and oppression.

The rally will take place immediately after the conclusion of the National Peace Conference which will be held July 23-25. For more information, see nationalpeaceconference.org
