Sherry and I just got interviewed by someone from the Dispatch… sweet. She was asking why there is such strong opposition to the war, but nobody’s out here protesting. My answer? …I don’t know!! I think people like to pass the buck, they voted the Dem’s in last November and they think that’s all there is to it. Too bad they aren’t doing s—t! (Congress, I mean.)
That’s a problem indeed. Nobody in the streets.
Cultural Relativity just played, they are so hot!!
The veggie chili is flowing. Too bad it’s kinda spicy and I don’t like spicy. But great otherwise.
More soon!
By the way, we’re here til 9PM, not 6!! There’s still time, come join us!!
- Disclaimer: the rum & coke has started flowing for me so the updates may get a little more entertaining (maybe?) and typos may become more prevalent
- The Homeless Gnomes are playing now, very cool, lots of energy!
- I’ve confirmed it myself that the streaming audio is working, so tune in!
- Here’s a pic of Bonnie, from our group World Can’t Wait, speaking on the U.S. military’s use of depleted uranium
- And here’s a pic of Queen Victoria, in from England for the day’s festivities! (She’s promoting our drink, Tyrant Water)
Peace out for now!
- We’ve got the Free Press here recording all day! The audio is streaming live @ http://radio.freepress.org (it may still be having kinks worked out so if it’s not working just yet, try again soon!)
- 10TV News was just in here recording, interviewed Connie Harris (main event organizer), got some shots of our tables (including a close up of the Columbus 9/11 Truth table and bumper stickers!)
- Connie Harris is up now performing some acoustic songs.
- Personally, I’m looking forward to 4pm when the vegetarian chili gets busted out.
This is Peacechicken reporting live from Little Brother’s, over and out.
Day of Music, Love,
Peace, and Resistance
This Sunday it will be 4 years since the United States ILLEGALLY and IMMORALLY invaded Iraq, using September 11th as justification.
Since then we have lost over 3,218 US soldiers, over 23,785 have been maimed and injured, anywhere from 100,000-655,000 Iraqi civilians have been killed, over 2 MILLION Iraqis fortunate enough to get out alive are now refugees, and over $408 BILLION has been spent.
AND FOR WHAT?
Join us for a day of protest, music, speakers, and unity. A day to refuel, remember what we’re up against, and what wonderful people we have in the trenches with us. It’s all ages and a meager $2 will get you in.
Sponsored by Columbus 9/11 Truth, the Columbus chapter of World Can’t Wait, and other local peace groups.
Another year, another “anniversary.” Don’t know about you but I’ve had ENOUGH.
Iraq.. Afghanistan.. Iran.. Syria.. the lines are all blurring together. Shall we just hit the big red button and get it over it — put us out of our misery?
What a good excuse for a party, it may just be the last one we ever have. Sponsored by World Can’t Wait Columbus, Columbus 9/11 Truth, and other local peace groups. Music by Cultural Relativity, Ukulele Man, Connie Harris, Victoria Parks, and more. Speakers include Bob Fitrakis and others. (Will update when more details are available.)
That weekend is also the one-year anniversary of the release of V for Vendetta, how perfect.
“…It’s late now
And there’s only four hours ’til I get up again
You know I’d wait somehow
If I thought this was something
That a little time would mend…”- Sarah Harmer
