The North Carolina NAACP is sponsoring an event that hopes to bring progressive thinkers in North Carolina to demonstrate on behalf of a 14-point agenda. Three points, for example, being a moratorium on the death penalty, universal health care in North Carolina, and new environmental standards.

I will be there with camera in tow as well as a fighting desire for change. It should prove to be an exciting event for anyone who revels in the freedoms of a democratic system. Come one and come all, if not to demonstrate, then to point and gasp at the antics of thousands of demented liberals, and maybe even voice your own differing opinions.

In the modern age of media where we can tune in to any partisan news programming that suits us or shamelessly pontificate our own political views form the solitude of a lap-top (blush) this should be a breath of fresh air. An ode to days gone by, when people had to actually yell to be heard.
