The Homelessness Marathon will be doing a special broadcast -- "Live From
The March For Our Lives" tomorrow, Tuesday, September 2nd. This broadcast
will be on about a dozen stations and will be available over the internet
at: http://kpftx.org:9000/homeless

The March For Our Lives will be a major poor people's demonstration
outside the Republican National Convention. It will include homeless
people, welfare mothers, people without health insurance and many, many
others whose needs are not being met by the current economic order.

Though plans for the convention itself are in a state of flux, the march
is going to go ahead as scheduled. We well understand that as we are on
the air, a tragedy may be rapidly unfolding in the Gulf Coast, but as we
saw after Katrina, it is a tragedy that, after its violent beginning, will
continue to develop in slow motion for years to come. This slow-motion
tragedy has already engulfed many millions of Americans, and we remain
committed to bringing you the voices that are drowned out by the
never-ending hurricane of the mainstream media.

10. People speaking up for themselves!

Why is this not more important on DU?

I really would like to know why this doesn't get the attention on DU that other causes get.
