I got an email from a neighbor who thought I might be interested in getting involved with a newly formed group here in the DC area. They’ve already staged a protest at the Washington Post to urge them to cover the Downing Street Minutes, and are holding a meeting this Saturday, July 9th in Northern Virginia to go over ideas for future work and action.
I know there are more than a few progressives in the DC area who might post here, so I offered to post something here and she suggested the following text…
Downing Street Memo
Want to be part of a DSM activist group in the Washington, D.C. area? Newly formed group has already staged a protest at the Washington Post; meeting this weekend to consider our next action. For more information, contact Debby Churchman at churchman@nwf.org,
Be gentle folks – this is my first diary here!
By the way – I don’t know much about this new group. I learned about it from a trusted neighbor / friend. Debby sounds nice – I’ve traded a few emails with her and this group sounds like it’s on the up & up.
Peace
I am super interested in this group. I can’t be there but I want to join. sign me in! and great diary and recommended! keep up the good work!
Hi Apian – glad to hear from you.
I’d send a quick note to Debby at the email in the initial post. She’s running things and can let you know what’s going on after this Saturday’s meeting.
I just moved out of DC, would have definitely joined, good luck!
