Our July Vigil--the Hopes of People Alive on the Street
Our women on the streets: Geraldine, Alex, Marg, Sandra, Esme, Hellen, Karen, Denise, Sivan, Joan--sharing the activist corner with a group of Palestinian Australians giving out literature against the occupation and a protest by Honduran Australians against the coup in their central American country. All I can say is that the gray winter day was transformed by the vitality of human dreaming or a better world--join us for just ten minutes, for an hour on our next vigil, the first Saturday in August, August 1--you don't have to agree with all our politics--we do not always agree with each other but if you are haunted by the ongoing suffering of the people of Gaza, by the images of militaristic aggression against civilian populations that seem to be sweeping the world these days, join us on the streets, where ideas live on the body and passivity is banished.
