Saturday's Organization:
Food not Bombs/Comida no Bombas is an organization that creates opportunities for people to eat together, rather than to bomb one another. They recover food that would have been discarded and share it as a way of protesting war and poverty. http://www.foodnotbombs.net/ Food Not Bombs started after the May 24, 1980 protest to stop the Seabrook Nuclear power station north of Boston in New Hampshire in the United States. The people that started Food Not Bombs share their first full meal outside the Federal Reserve Bank on March 26, 1981 during the stock holders meeting of the Bank of Boston to protest the exploitation of capitalism and investment in the nuclear industry.
