The Power of Listen...
Imagine seeing hundreds of young people, of all different races, religions and backgrounds standing in solidarity as one.
Picture rows of students standing side by side saying nothing.
Visualize the black X's across their mouths and the simple yet powerful words written on their shirts:
HUNGER
POVERTY
EDUCATION
CHILDREN SOLIDERS
If the thought sends chills through the body, can you imagine what a simple passer by'er will feel?
On Saturday November 20th, 2010 from 3-5pm we will be standing in solidarity with thousands across Canada and the world! We will be taking a stand for the 1 billion living in poverty who don't have a voice.
The actually event will take place in Nathan Philips' Square, we will meet at the corner of Bay and Queen at 2:55pm!!!
Please wear either/or:
- a black X across your mouth (using hockey time perhaps)
- a plain white t-shirt with one or two words written on it about why you are standing up! (See the words above)
One of the most important things about this event is that we have as many people out as possible, we would ask that you come out for what is our biggest awareness campaign of the year! Please bring any friends, siblings, ANYONE who would like to join in this event! More people = Bigger Impact.
Nathan Philips' Square is expected to be VERY VERY busy this day and time, with thousands of people walking by!!!
Sign up at I Am Silent, also you can find details about optional pledges on this website. See you all on Saturday!
Peace, Love, Happiness
TORONTO MOB CORE TEAM
