On March 20, 2010,  a multi-city anti-war event was held in the United States to protest the U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The event was organized by A.N.S.W.E.R. with support from other civil society actors such as the Topanga Peace Alliance and the Teamsters.
The scheduling of the event ties it to the seventh anniversary of the start of the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003.
In Washington, D.C.  thousands marched past the White House, some bearing coffins draped with various flags to symbolize fatalities of the wars.
Others enacted mock attacks on the White House using cardboard combat drones.
A parallel demonstration took place in Hollywood, California called "U.S. Out of Afghanistan and Iraq Now!".
In addition to the big NGOs, this was supported by local grassroots organisations such as LA Workers' Voice and Long Beach Area Peace Network.
 Thousands of people slowly made their way down Hollywood Boulevard at 2 p.m. dressed as zombies and other undead.
