Vigil to End War, every Wed. at the Lake Street / Marshall Avenue Bridge

In 1999, WAMM’s End War Committee partnered with other local activist groups to initiate a weekly vigil on the Lake Street and Marshal Avenue bridge in St.Paul. Originally in response to the U.S. and NATO bombings in Yugoslavia, the vigil has continued weekly with different U.S. sanctions, interventions, and wars to protest. Every Wednesday for over 20 years—rain, shine or below zero temps—activists in the Twin Cities have gathered to stand in solidarity with all those affected by U.S. militarism and to call for peace.
