Do We Continue to Whine, or Do We March? [View all]
I am just as devastated by the results of this election as everyone else, am saddened at what America could become under the fascist leadership of Donald J President. Sleep since November 8th has been fitful at best as I watch the Orange Menace self implode right before the eyes of his cheering minions...SCARY TIMES.
That said, at some point we have to pick ourselves up, dust off our bottoms and get down to work. This though saw me this morning realize, that "We the People" can take the spotlight off of Donald J. Trump on election day with a 50 State "Day of Mourning" Protest, millions of Americans taking to the streets all dressed in black who share one big hashtag, #notmypresident. I laid out in my blog the idea. If you are ready to get back in the race, hope you will give it a read here.
Excerpt
We The People Can OWN Trump's Inauguration Day!
Sometimes, to make things happen, you just have to THROW IT OUT THERE, and let Social Media take it viral, "We The People" as one connected community saying, "Let's DO THIS". So with this post, throwing my idea out there onto the World Wide Web hoping that individuals, groups and organizations all come together to breath a dream into reality on Inauguration Day.
The Concept...Inauguration "Day of Mourning" Protest across all 50 United States as we take the attention off of Donald J. Trump and instead shine the spotlight on "We The People" who will be most affected by his administration.
1. Make a protest sign and dress ALL IN BLACK.
2. Show up at one of the below SUGGESTED LOCATIONS, or become a leader and organize a group and location in your town or city. Proposed starting time is 11:00 AM Eastern Standard Time.
3. PEACEFULLY start walking/marching IN SILENCE...this is a Mourning Protest, so lets make it a silent National Vigil, a mass of humanity all in black marching in protest, our signs delivering our message to the Media.
4. Swamp Social Media...bring your Cell Phones, live Tweet, upload pictures and/or video from your march in REAL TIME.
The Vibe of Protest
Think a New Orleans French Quarter funeral protection! Bring your instruments, dance, sing appropriate songs, and celebrate what makes America Great..."WE THE PEOPLE"
