wear green wednesday

if you're going to be on a college campus wednesday--especially one with a college republicans chapter that plans to observe islamo-fascism awareness week (that includes UW)--wear a green t-shirt to show solidarity with muslim students (and, by extension, opposition to the college republican douchebags). according to the seattle times article i linked to in the previous sentence, the UW muslim students association will be handing out green armbands, and is encouraging people to wear green, because green is a color traditionally associated with islam. it is important to send the message back to college republicans and allied groups that their attempts to foster fear, hatred, and intolerance of islam and of muslim people, are unacceptable and ineffective.

michael medved will be speaking on the UW campus in association with "islamo-fascist awareness week," hosted by the UW college republicans--thursday evening, 7pm, at kane hall. keep your eyes peeled. perhaps there will be a protest.
