Ready or Not, RNC, Here’s What’s Coming By Alexandra Tager, In These Times
August 31 has been reserved for Civil Disobedience and Direct Action, so look for the War Resisters League and the Pagan Cluster to lock arms and drop to the street as close to Madison Square Garden as they can get. The Central Labor Council steps up at 4 p.m., September 1, with a permit for a Labor Day Unity Rally right under the noses of Republicans (8th Avenue and 30th Street).
But the action really worth watching will unfurl where delegates and lobbyists come face to face with actual unmasked New Yorkers, who will demand accountability. Many activists don’t expect their point to be made behind metal barricades miles from the delegates. They plan to take their point to the source, one rabid Republican at a time—that is, if the delegates have the nerve to get off their shuttle buses.------------------------------------------- posted 6:43 AM :: reference link ::
