I know there have been a number of cautions posted about people showing up in DC tomorrow, and you have to decide for yourself. But my feeling is that, just as we should not cower from potential terrorist threats, we should never be afraid to come to OUR Nation's Capitol.

I know that Saturday will be a long day for us... but I just found this info at www.votermarch.org

Sept. 29th, Saturday, 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm, Washington DC

Voter March will have a solidarity rally in Wash DC, at the East Front U.S. Capitol Steps, directly across from the U.S. Supreme Court on Saturday, September 29th. We will gather at 5pm with speakers, and as darkness comes it will become a Candlelight vigil showing solidarity with victims of the September 11th tragedy and their families and friends.

Les Souci will be the Grand Marshall for the East Front Capitol steps and volunteers should email Les Souci at Souci@votermarch.org. Under the proposed permit, there will be no music, but we may have amplified sound for speakers.

SPEAKERS:
Les Souci - Voter March Wash DC (National Steering Comm.) - Messages of peace
Thomas Kiely - Voter March NY Director - Personal account of the WTC disaster
Asa Gordon, Executive Director, Douglass Institute of Government
Bob Kunst, Florida Activist, Chairman of the Oral Majority

Just FYI, folks

I totally agree (with post no. 64). If we let the radicals and terrorists drive us into our homes out of fear, they have won. I am not afraid for myself. But, as a mother of a 22 month and 5-year old, I can't help but worry about their safety.
