Orange Ribbons at the Oscars
Director Paul Haggis wore an orange ribbon. He
said:
"the ribbons are the color of
the jumpsuits at Guantanamo Bay, and at our secret detention camps,
where prisoners are kept indefinitely, in violation of our
constitution, and tortured. This is something that our government
has long condemned as the heinous behavior of dictators, but
something that unbelievably we now condone."

August 26, 2007
World Can’t Wait volunteers distributed hundreds of flyers, sold numerous
bandannas and signed up dozens of new activists at the Hollywood Farmer’s

Report from July 27th Los Angeles
|
A press conference was held at noon at the new National
Impeachment Center (aka the Peace Center) to kick-off the Declare It Now - Wear
Orange! Campaign. It began when 3 orange-jump suited, black-hooded figures
knelt before the podium while actor René Auberjonois (Boston Legal) delivered a
stunning dramatic reading of the World Can't Wait Call. A flurry of media
cameras captured the images. Then Prof. Dennis Loo of the WCW National
Steering Committee contextualized the campaign and brought out the vision of
transforming the situation where far too many people who hate what's going on
are still not expressing or acting on that sentiment. Constitutional
lawyer Stephen Rohde made clear why it's not too late to push forward for
impeachment and why it's urgently needed. John Duran, Mayor of West
Hollywood, who recently led the first city in southern California to pass a
resolution for the impeachment of Bush & Cheney, spoke to why he's wearing
orange. Musician Wayne Kramer (formerly of the MC-5, co-founder of the
White Panther Party) powerfully declared his feelings through his song,
"Something's Broken in the Promised Land". Last, but not least,
Peter Thottam, Executive Director of the National Impeachment Center, announced
the next steps of the Center while sporting the orange ribbon that he's been
promoting. On Saturday, La Opinion printed a photo of the press
conference on p. 3 showing the orange jumpsuits, poster and new banner; this is
the largest Spanish-language newspaper on the West Coast.

New Powerful 2 minute - Declare It Now! Video on YouTube
New!
PASS IT NOW TO EVERYONE
Declare It Now - Wear Orange!
Drive Out the Bush Regime!
The urgent color of orange - the color that has been assigned to
those detained and tortured with no due process - must become the color of a
gathering sentiment to end all this. This spreading of orange is part of
seizing the moral high ground and showing our collective determination to bring
these crimes to a halt NOW by Driving Out the Bush Regime.
A groundswell of orange, assisted and amplified by the
voices of prominent people and musicians wearing and promoting orange on TV,
radio, and on stage at concerts can break people out of this conundrum where
millions are just furious but still paralyzed by the paralysis of the loyal
opposition Party and by the anaesthetizing effects of the presidential
elections.
