Our plans for World Day Against the Death Penalty (10/10/10)

M'kay then people, let's get to work. Here are our preliminary plans for probably the most important date in our calender this year, World Day Against the Death Penalty on October 10th, one month from now.

Obiously we're a comparitively small organization with zero funding, so we can't do anything major. But we can still make a difference. As they say, every little helps!

The Plan:

First of all, we plan to hold our first ever 'Metaphorical March for Abolition'. We can't literally have a march because we're scattered all over the globe, but we can 'march' symbolically.

To do this, we're asking all our members who want to get involved (we'd hope that's all of you!) to take a photo or even a quick video clip of you 'marching'. The pictures to the left are of former protests, I think they're both from last years 10th Annual March Against the Death Penalty in Austin. We want to make up a video for our YouTube channel of us 'marching'. You can represent your feelings in any way - a placard or a banner, doesn't have to be much, even just a sheet of paper with your message on it. Your message doesn't have to be Shakespeare - 'end the death penalty' is fine. Stop executions. Etc. Whatever you want. If you're uncomfortable about showing your face, cover it with the sheet of paper, or just cut it out of the photo. Be as creative as you want. Why not show where you hail from? We're not talking about writing your zip code on the sheet (that'd be creepy), but you could stand next to a sign or famous landmark. For instance, ScofieldBurrows has told me she's trying to find a Scottish flag to wear. Anything. We don't care as long as you're getting involved!

We'll put up the pictures we take as soon as we've taken them to show you an example. And to show you we're not asking for much.

By the way, we're currently scouting for new managers for the Stardoll club, and this would be a perfect opportunity to show you get involved! Hint hint :)

Send your pictures (or questions, if you have them) to our email address: deathwatchstardoll@hotmail.co.uk

Tell your friends. Why not get them in the photo too? Remember, we don't need to see your faces! We just wanna see your support. And we need as many photos as we can get by October 9th when we'll make up the video ready for presentation on October 10th! What are you waiting for?
