The UPRISE Tour is a tour of mid-west and mid-Atlantic states aimed at advancing regional counter-recruitment efforts and linking the issues of war and military recruitment to corporate globalization and environmental sustainability. The Tour consists of student and non-student activists, members of Iraq Veterans Against the War and musicians. At each stop, members of the Tour will organize and participate in workshops, trainings, public forums, direct education and outreach, all-out street protests, as well as concerts and other creative performances. Our route runs through the Rust Belt, the old steel-towns cutting through the Appalachians into Ohio and Michigan, ending in Chicago. The tour goes from September 26th until October 27th.

One of the primary aims of the Tour to build or strengthen communities and cultures of resistance along the way. We shall address specific needs of each community, whether to support local counter recruitment efforts that are already in place, providing resources and help build efforts where there are none, or by linking to the local costs of the war, such as the economic depression of the Rustbelt. By developing networks of trust we will plant the seeds for a sustainable and robust counter-recruitment recruitment that can also withstand the heavy-hand of repression that has accompanied the recent growth of the that movement. In our travels we plan to share our experiences and insights with the people we meet with along the way but also learn from their experiences. This ever-expanding knowledge-base can then be ferried from one community to the next as well as publicized on the Tour's website.
