What Can Wearing Orange Do?
When you wear orange daily - and get others to do the same - you are:
showing your solidarity with the victims being tortured by our government at Guantanamo and elsewhere;
taking a public stand against illegal, immoral, unjust wars for empire;
refusing to allow nooses and clothes hangers to be the icons of our time;
adopting the high road against the moral monsters in charge and calling on others to do the same;
acting as a political representative of a new order;
donning an orange badge of courage;
organizing in your day-to-day life;
implementing a unique form of everyday political resistance;
rupturing with merely private grumbling and taking action;
making visible the invisible sentiment against this regime;
fostering an atmosphere in which allies can readily identify each other in the crowd and unite to resist in many other ways together;
refusing to be a "good German;"
provoking others to decide whether they will continue to remain silent or not;
putting the reactionaries who stand with Bush and Cheney on the defensive;
manifesting what you stand against and what you stand for;
expressing your fierce hope and determination for a world worth living in and a future worth living for.
