Dog Beach in OB, March 4, 2017

Join hundreds of your neighbors as we create a human banner spelling out VOTE! on the sands of Ocean Beach San Diego and simultaneously in conjunction with folks up at Ocean Beach San Francisco.

We hope to create a 50 foot long human VOTE! banner on the sands at Dog Beach at 10am, Saturday, April 21st.

We’re asking that everyone wears blue and begin arriving at 10am to fill in the letters. Our aerial photo and video will taken at 11 sharp to coincide with the San Francisco event.

Please bring:

Looking for volunteers to arrive early to set-up the letters. Please email humanbanner@gmail.com

From the Organizers:

Why VOTE!

Do you remember that kick to the gut on Election night in 2016. Waking up the next day in a state of shock and despair.

Do you remember the elation as WE gathered together at the Women’s March and all the marches since, knowing that WE were not alone, that while things looked bleak WE knew that WE would prevail and WE would be stronger for it.

Those fellow resisters who joined us in Ocean Beach last March for the human banners spelling out RESIST and IMPEACH, remember the joy in being together in solidarity. WE knew WE could turn the tide.

Now WE must take that solidarity and GET OUT THE VOTE! WE must continue our resistance!

WE are already seeing the results, in Pennsylvania and Georgia special elections, Republican incumbents dropping out, a “too close to call” Senatorial race in Red State Texas. A new wave of women and minority candidates across the nation.

WE must not lose our momentum, WE still have much to do, WE must GET OUT THE VOTE! WE must Flip the 50, take the 49th, WE must oust racist Supervisors and those politicians who are bought and paid for by the NRA. For so many reasons WE must GET OUT THE VOTE!, for our children’s future, for the future of our planet. Join us Saturday as we share our message to GET OUT THE VOTE!
