How can i find out about these protests before they actually occur? Is there a calendar somewhere or a mailing list?

Thanks.

The photos made me remember why I used to march and be active...maybe it's time again! The power of the people with their communication / expression in the street...all together with so many angles to share on what is going on!

Please Announce Protests BEFORE they happen

I would like to be involved in these protests. Surely someone must have heard of them beforehand. The calendar link doesn't work. Please, Seattle Indymedia, use this space to announce upcoming activism more than you currently do. Who organized this march so I can contact them directly?


EDITOR: The first announcement we posted was in the 12/28/08 article in the center column of the home page:  http://www.seattle.indymedia.org/en/2008/12/270585.shtml A follow up reminder was placed at the end of  http://www.seattle.indymedia.org/en/2008/12/270625.shtml The first article listed an email address for the Seattle demonstration:  general@voicesofpalestine.org
