The Freeps will be protesting F 9/11 Opening
If you can't get tickets, try to be at yoour local theater and show support! Bring registration forms-and of course, enlistment forms for the dumbasses who are there to protest against the movie! :-)

Dear XXX@YYY.com,

Call To Action: Register Voters at Fahrenheit 9/11

When voters walk out Fahrenheit 9/11 they will be ready to vote George
Bush out of
office. We recommend that you be waiting outside the theatre with voter
registration
cards. Hand them out, if someone wants 10 give them 10, people will be
motivated to
register their family and friends after this movie.

Voice4Change is in contact with Lions Gate one of the distributors of
the movie, and we
are asking them to suggest to theatres to allow groups to set up voter
registration
tables inside the lobby or outside the theatre. We will keep you up to
date on
developments in that area. What you will need to do to make this a
success:


1. Contact your local Board of Elections or Registrars office and
arrange to pick up
thousands of voter registration cards. Some states require you go
through a short
training to be allowed to register people.

2. Contact some friends to help you. Before the movie we recommend that
you have some
people actually registering people so that you have a known impact.
However, after the
movie since you have a large crowd moving to their vehicle at the same
time handing the
cards out like leaflets will also be effective, especially to people
already registered
who will be motivated to register others.

3. Go to meetings of your local peace groups or Democratic Party clubs
and try to make
this project a priority of the organization so you can hit more than
one theatre at
multiple times of the day.

4. Go to http://www.f911tix.com/ to see where the movie is playing near
you and make your
plans!

5. Send an e-mail to info@voice4change.org and let us know your plans
and the results of
your efforts!

6. Bring Banners and signs, especially on June 25th when your local
media will be
inclined to cover the event. If you have a group of people to help and
some signs and
such, issue a press release. Let the media know what theatre you will
be at and at what
time.

7. Have fun, activism can be fun…see the movie it will inspire you to
see the reaction of
the attendees of the movie.

Forward this Call as widely as possible:
