Sarah Palin Protest Friday Oct 3rd Dallas
The Sarah Palin (she was in town for a 1k per plate fundraiser) protest held Friday morning in downtown Dallas was great. We had an official count of over 400 protestors on our side; they were out there for over 4 hours! The other side had a few more –so over one thousand people were on the streets of downtown Dallas protesting –it was excellent.
What? You didn’t see much coverage about it on the news?
You didn’t know about it or you would have come?

Yeah, we know --that’s why Dallas Air America Groups http://www.dallasairamerica.org and now North Texas Progressive http://www.northtexasprogressive.org/ have a weekly newsletter and why we post all local event photos and videos on our site! Also, please JOIN CODEPINK !

We’ve got photos and video up here:
All the photos are up at CODEPINK of Greater Dallas: http://www.codepinkdallas.net/ and we also we have we have links to local corporate media coverage. (Print and video)

There were activists from: the gay community, reproductive rights, ACORN, various peace groups, animal rights, AIDS awareness and the most wonderful women from Collin, Rockwall and other Democratic clubs !

Go North Texas !!!!– This event really allowed us to use the amazing array of new technology and reporting ability that we now have for progressive local news in the North Texas Progressive
