[SDCPJ] OLB San Diego - Upcoming Actions

Overpass Light Brigade has a number of actions coming up, starting on Monday, Feb 24th, from 5:30 to 7 in Hillcrest with a trans* rights rally by Canvass for a Cause at Sixth and University following the announcement of the status of a transphobic referendum initiative to repeal a new law signed into law by the governor, Assembly Bill 1266, protecting rights to ensure that transgender public school students are able to participate in sports and other activities and use school facilities based on their gender identity.  If enough signatures were submitted, Californians would vote on the referendum in November.
 
 
The following evening, Feb 25th from 7 to 8:30 PM, there will be a candlelight vigil by GMO-Free Orange County with a light brigade message "OMG GMO GMA = EVIL" to help provide a welcoming committee for the powerful Grocery Manufacturers Association arrival at the Laguna Niguel Ritz-Carlton hotel and to let them know that it is NOT OK for them to dictate what's in OUR food supply, on Pacific Coast Highway and Ritz Carlton Drive, at their arrival at a conference put on by high powered attorneys focusing on:
 
- Introducing a watered down GMO labeling bill on the federal level
 
- Laws to thwart States from implementing GMO labeling, bring law suits against communities and/or states that have implemented GMO label laws or created GMO Free zones
 
- Thwarting laws and class action suits pertaining to food safety which includes laws regarding food dyes, nano technology and the new controversial "green" in plant agent orange pesticides 2-4D to name a few.
 
 
Then on Friday, Feb 25th, OLB will have a "CAPTIVITY KILLS" Light Brigade on the Clairemont Drive overpass of I-5 from 7 to 8:30 PM to keep pressure on Sea World and other marine parks to end captivity.
 
 
Looking ahead to May, so far two actions are being planned:
 
- DroneDiego anti-drone days which will tentatively be from Thursday, May 15 through Sunday, May 18th.
 
- March Against Monsanto Light Brigade…on the weekend of the MAM, the rally and march is on Saturday, May 24th.
 
 
If you'd like occasional updates from time to time on upcoming actions, be sure to subscribe to our Mailing List, and check your junk or spam folder for the confirmation email.
 
Those of you have never seen "light brigade", it consists of large lighted letters to make up a message, each letter held by a different person.  Examples are on our website.
 
You are what make OLB happen!  By holding a letter you have a personal connection between yourself and the message and the struggle!  We sincerely appreciate your participation and welcome you to come back!  Thank you, each and every Holder of the Light!
 
 Peace…Chris
