Annual vigil to close the School of the Americas
School of the Americas Watch (SOA Watch) will hold its annual weekend vigil to close the U.S. Army School of the Americas/Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation (WHINSEC) from Nov. 22-24, 2013.
The SOA Watch movement is a large and diverse grassroots movement, powered by the people of the Americas standing together in solidarity. Its goal is to close the SOA/WHINSEC and to change U.S. foreign policy towards Latin America by educating the public, lobbying Congress and participating in creative, nonviolent resistance.
