‘Social vs. Military Costs’

In the context of the international campaign ‘Poetry Against Arms’ http://www.poetry-against-arms.world/ and the Global Campaign on Military Spending (http://archive.demilitarize.org/), we conducted the action ‘Social vs. Military Costs’, in front of the Greek Parliament, organized by:

-World without Wars and Violence (http://www.kosmosxorispolemous.gr/)

-Association of Conscientious Objectives (http: //www.antirrisies.gr/),

-Voluntary Civil Service Hellas (http://sci.gr/)

-feminist collective The Purple (http://tomov.gr/).

With a central demand to reduce military spending and increase social spending, we wore white masks emphasizing that we are not invisible, we opened up gigantic ‘There are no money’, we planted flowers in military helmets with the painted sign of peace and play poems.
