This was posted as an event by Mz Imani and i thought it was important enough for us all to repost here:
Greetings Friends!
I hope your summer is sweet and that you are growing in ways that surprise you! I was recently invited to lead/faclitate a drum jam on July 4th at Farragut Square in Washington, DC. I accepted!
Now, i invite you to join us in our nations capital to stand up for religious freedoms. I especially invite our local Soul Fire Inside family to come forward and help to hold a container of radical transformation through the drum circle that we will co-create!
We all know how important the issue of religious freedom, really is, Right?!?!?!?!
The First Amendment of The Bill of Rights, states:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Please come out and show your support for tolerance, for choice and respect for religious freedom. Let your voice be heard, if you agree that EVERY Vet has a legal entitlement to be laid to rest, with the sign of his or her faith on their tombstone!
If you are willing and able, come out and show your respect for a Wiccan soldier, who served our country and lost his life. Show your support to his family, by Showing Up! and creating harmony in a diverse interfaith community. Bring your instruments, an open heart and a willingness to be all you can be!
Whether you come in person, or connect through the ethers, please gather your intentions and share your spirits energy as we intentionally open the gates that have previously blocked this expression of religious freedom.
On July 4th, 2006 @ 3pm, we will drum and dance our dreams into reality. you are most welcome to join in!
please contact me directly (301-977-4547) if you would like to help with any level of pre-event networking, pre and on-site production, or facilitation of this drum jam (aka, a circle that will help make the world a better place!).
below is a press release, please post, forward it and talk it up. Please help us get the word out!
with love and gratitude!
