WASHINGTON – Friday night, armed with popcorn, lemonade and serious signage, a few hundred activists gathered at 1075 7th Street NW to protest billionaire GOP backers the Koch Brothers as they graced the Americans for Prosperity-sponsored Defending the American Dream Conference.

But this time, they were determined to do it with style.

In addition to the protest signs, catchy slogans and noise-making to disrupt the conference, the organizers flipped the script by providing a community party space. As mid-tempo house music, reggae and hip-hop blasted from speakers in a small parking lot off of L Street NW, activists sampled wares from local vendors and watched a projector flash images of protests from around the country on the back wall.

it makes us look like Winners & everybody loves a Winner & everybody loves a good time.

Hope this becomes a trend.

:)

I hope more activists use these techniques. A spirit of hope and positivity should only help.
