| FLASH MOB NEWS AND IMPORTANT UPDATE The Flash Mob For Burma is Gaining Traction!!! Change in plans! So the great people at the Abbot Kinney Festival and LAPD heard that we are organizing a flash mob and contacted us. The good thing is that it turns out they are major supporters of the Causecast community. So in an effort to support us, they have moved our booth and flash mob area to an even better location! The Causecast Booth this Sunday will now be located between California Ave & Millwood Ave, in the dead center of the festival! This will also be the same core area that we'll be dispersing from to "freeze" at 4pm. If you can't find us, look for the person wearing our pink logo as a head The movement is growing…CNN, BBC and MSN!! The poster that you'll be holding up on Sunday has quickly become a powerful symbol of freedom and democracy for Burma across the globe. Just this past week it has gained even greater attention by being featured on the front page of BBC News, on MSN and in other media outlets with an internationally circulated Reuters photo, as demonstrators outside of the U.N. and the G20 held it high. With your help, this will be huge! We've received tremendous support for this campaign, internationally and locally. Thanks to the dozens of you who came by our office this week and took posters for you and your friends. If you weren't planning on coming out, please think again and join us in making history. For those of you who don't have a poster yet, don't worry. We will be passing out free Shepard Fairey posters to the first 300 people on Sunday from 10am to 3:30pm between California Ave & Millwood Ave on Abbot Kinney…so don't miss out. Want to get more information about Aung San Suu Kyi and Burma before you come out tomorrow? Read the story behind Burma and learn how you can make a difference. Need more info about the Flash Mob? It's all right here. We look forward to seeing you in Venice this Sunday! If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me or Jonathan Kalan at Jon [at] Causecast [dot] org. "Please Use Your Liberty to Promote Ours" – Aung San Suu Kyi Thank you. peace, Levi Felix w: www.causecast.org |
