East Timor will celebrate its independence on May 20, 2002, a day that will be an important transition point in this long-suffering people’s struggle for true self-determination. International solidarity continues to be essential — and ETAN needs your support to continue our work to bring the East Timorese refugees home, to hold accountable those responsible for the genocidal occupation of East Timor, and to build powerful partnerships between the grassroots in the U.S. and East Timor. As East Timor’s chief minister Mari Alkatiri stated during the August 2001 Constituent Assembly election, “We struggled for more than 24 years for independence. We’ve learned the lesson that even small people have a voice.” Add your voice today! Please remember ETAN in your year-end giving. Donations of any size for ETAN’s political and advocacy work should be made out to ETAN (these are not tax-deductible). Tax-deductible donations over $50 can be made out to “The Foundation for International Scientific Cooperation” with “ETAN/U.S.” in the check memo line; these support our educational work. All donations should be mailed to ETAN at 1202 Williamson St., Madison, WI 53703. You can also give securely online by credit card at www.etan.org/do/donate.htm. Thank you for your support!
