Invitation to join the second Power of the Word Block on June 5th 2007

Following the successful Power of the Word Blockade at the Faslane nuclear submarine base on December 6, 2006, we will be returning to Faslane on June 5, 2007 with what we hope will be an even larger group of poets, authors, journalists, performers and musicians. Please join us in the necessary civil resistance that will give power and strength to the new Scottish Parliament to refuse Trident.
