As Molly Ivins said in her last column:
We are the people who run this country. We are the deciders. And every single day, every single one of us needs to step outside and take some action to help stop this war. Raise hell. Think of something to make the ridiculous look ridiculous. Make our troops know we’re for them and trying to get them out of there. Hit the streets to protest Bush’s proposed surge. If you can, go to the peace march in Washington on Jan. 27. We need people in the streets, banging pots and pans and demanding, “Stop it, now!”
Thanks for the lowdown on this. Wish your diary were getting a bit more attention.
I try to post as many big events in Austin as I can.
Thanks refinish, have you seen the March on the Pentagon scheduled for the same day?
“From protest to resistance” – ain’t it the truth? May it happen everywhere.
I think that is why the day was chosen for those who could not go to D.C.
Anyone know how to find something that might be local?
I’d sure love to be in Austin even though I don’t play an instrument. I have a cornet that my son played in fifth grade – I guess I could just happily blow that out of tune!
You can check for local listiong for vets for peace or code pink in your area and see if they have something going on or better yet organize one.
Kazoo Brigade? lol
This is awesome refinish. Thanks for promoting activism!
No problem!!! I am all about getting people involved!!!
Oh, this does look like fun! If I were in Texas, I’d either get Teach’s class set of kazoos, or dust off my old clarinet and hit the streets!
I wish you could be here. You can always check for local things going on that day as I think a lot of groups are all doing something on the same day nation wide.
an a capella rendition of “We Shall Overcome” and other great protest hits…
