Military bases, universities and companies involved in Barack Obama’s #drones programme are to be targeted in a month-long series of protests by activists keen to build on the renewed public focus over the president’s controversial policy.
Dubbed “April Days of Action” by participants, organisers are hoping to capitalise on a series of recent controversies that have thrust the use of drones – especially when it comes to targeted killings of suspected terrorists – into the heart of American political debate.
The protests will begin on April 3 with a rally in New York, followed by three days of protest outside the facilities of companies that make drones, including at San Diego-based General Atomics which makes Predator and Reaper drones.
