The LP Asks, Are YOU Against the Next War?

Adapted from a message sent by National LP:

In the chill of November 1969, a collective heartbeat resonated through the United States. The ‘March Against Death,’ a historic moment in the anti-war movement, drew over half a million Americans to the heart of Washington, DC, demanding an end to the Vietnam War. As we reflect on the echoes of that pivotal weekend 54 years later, it becomes painfully clear that the cry for peace still rings in our conscience. Today, in the face of continued conflict, the Libertarian Party emerges as the modern-day torchbearer, standing alone in its unwavering call for a moratorium on war.

The March Against Death remains etched in history as a poignant expression of national unity against the backdrop of a divisive war. It was a time when people from all walks of life, fueled by grief and determination, came together to demand change. Today, as we navigate a world still embroiled in conflict, the spirit of those marchers lives on in the Libertarian Party.

Over the past 54 years, the landscape of American politics has witnessed the rise and fall of administrations, yet one unfortunate constant endures: both Republicans and Democrats have repeatedly voted to send our sons and daughters into wars that often have little to do with our own national defense. From Vietnam to the Middle East, the cycle persists, and the toll on American lives and global stability is immeasurable.

In this sea of bipartisan Warhawks, the Libertarian Party stands as a solitary voice advocating for an end to our involvement in wars. Rooted in the principles of individual liberty and non-intervention, our values challenge the cult of the omnipotent state, offering a vision of a nation that prioritizes diplomacy over aggression. As the only political force echoing the sentiments of the March Against Death, the Libertarian Party shoulders the responsibility of carrying the torch for peace into the 21st century.

Looking forward, the Libertarian Party is gearing up for a series of anti-war events across the country in 2024. These gatherings will serve as platforms for like-minded individuals to rally against unnecessary conflicts, echoing the sentiments of the historic march that shook the nation in 1969. It’s a call to action, a plea for a return to a foreign policy that values human lives over geopolitical posturing.

As we reflect on the legacy of the March Against Death, let us rally behind our Party’s call for a stop to war. In 2024, let our voices be heard, demanding an end to the needless sacrifice of our sons and daughters on foreign soil.
