The day is almost here…just a few more hours and it will be MAY 24th in Seattle!
Where will you be this Saturday? Join us at Westlake Park at 11 AM for the rally. We march at 2 PM!
We have a full line-up of great stuff from live music to local speakers. Meet the folks from CAGJ (Community Alliance for Global Justice) and Beacon Food Forest, Fair Trade Coalition, CISPES and more. There will also be demos from the folks at Seattle Tilth, including info on composting and recycling! We’ll be sharing some free starters for your own guerrilla gardening fun, seed bags for home gardens, and much more. Oh! And we also have fun stuff planned for the kids, including face-painters!
There have been some recent concerns about where the parent organization “March Against Monsanto” really stands on the issues of feeding the poor, ending food deserts, making our food supply safe for ALL people regardless of their economic background or ethnicity. There have been confirmed reports of requests for people to “point out anarchists” to police in Montreal and phone calls to organizers in other cities. Let us assure you that this is NOT the case here in Seattle! That’s just not how we roll!
This rally and march is for EVERYONE by EVERYONE. Come one! Come all!
While it is a family-friendly event, there is no exclusion policy of any kind.
Be sure to bring your camera. Bee the Media. Film the cops.
See you in the streets!
Solidarity,
~Linx, Rabbit, Parrot & the rest of the #SeattleMAM crew
