Let's show up in large numbers and join forces in our own Madison community to support our Nigerian sisters and brothers back home.
DATE: Saturday, May 10th, 2014
Time: 12:00noon (Rally begins)
Place: Meet outside at Walgreens (downtown) on the square at 11:45am to gather and walk to Capitol steps to start the rally. Persons arriving after 12noon, join us on the Capitol steps.
Wear green and white (colors of the Nigerian flag. Wear a gele/headwrap if you can.)
Make and bring your own poster. Write messages on white cardboard in red or black marker.
If you want to add the names of some of the abducted girls, that would be a very powerful message. A list of 180 names can be found in this article from the Nationhttp://thenationonlineng.net/new/names-180-abducted-chibok-girls-released/
-------------------------------------------------------------
Come out and join the voices of local women, men, and allies standing in solidarity to demand the return of the 234+ school girls kidnapped from their village of Chibok on April 15th.
Stand with us to demand that our leaders here and abroad, and the Nigerian government ACT NOW to find and return these young women safe and sound to their families.
Spread the word within all your circles and networks! Stand up to #BringBackOurGirls!
Let's stand together!See you at the Capitol on Saturday!
