After 2h deciding going to Manchester or not, WE finally decided to STAY IN LIVERPOOL ON 19th JUNE.

Preparation of the Demonstration on 19th June:
Tasks for today:
o Contact the police (Sandra)
o Design the map with the route (Marta), to be added to the event!
That´s the route, what a efficiency:

o Announce the event in FB (Valentina):

Tasks for the event:
Description: we will march from the “bomb church”, meeting at 12.30 there, by stairs, to…(see the map route).
We need for this nice, joyful and enjoyable day:
o Wearing “homemade” white t-shirts, “homemade” means writing on them some sentences about the protest, maybe also the name of the group? (everyone of the group)
o Bring pans, pots, whatever to make noise (everyone of the group)
o Contact musicians, drummers (Maria), anyone knows someone?
o Distribute leaflets; Jonathan makes the short version of the manifesto, plus adding the group contact. (Not sure if we do 2 leaflet versions, one with the manifesto and other with the info of the group, or everything in one) Angela and Umut print them. (Any volunteer?) Marco is the graphic designer and editor of the leaflets.
o English songs (Maria, Ben?)
o Bring banners. Contact Angela, Natalia if you need cardboard. Check the old banner conditions and valid messages. (Angela and Natalia). Contact Barbara.
o Masks??? (sorry I miss this point?). We can also make up our faces, with some face paints. (Are we a circus?)
o Contact someone to record a video of the event! Anyone knows someone or has a camera?(?)
o Bring a music player with speakers? (Marco??)
o Smile (everyone)
Ideas for messages:
o Broken democracy
o Transparent democracy
o Take your future back
o Reclaim your future
Saturday we are going to meet again, to make the t-shirts, the banners and after that, going to Oye festival in Sefton park, wearing the homemade t-shirts, trying to grab more people for Sunday and for the group. Event on Saturday: Marcolentina´s sweet home close to Sefton park, Marco will send the indications. 2pm meet there (I think). Bring markers, t-shirts, cardboards!
Please complete if I forgot something. People who hasn´t been assigned to anything, I encourage to volunteer yourself. Thanks a lot for everyone. Have a nice day!
PS. Many thanks to Sandra for having written the Manifesto. Looking forward to receiving it!
