Look! I’m in the News!

I plan on writing more about the “Free Burma” rally in D.C. earlier today, but I just saw this on CNN and couldn’t believe it. If you go to the latest news on CNN.com and click on the article entitled “Washington demonstrators rally to ‘free Burma’“, you’ll see a beautiful picture of the back of my head and the poster I made.

My jaw pretty much dropped when I saw that not only did CNN do a story on it, but that I was the lead photo. I shaved my head last week in solidarity with the monks. I guess it really only takes something moderately outrageous to get in the news.

Anyway, last time I went to a protest it was for the anti-war rally and there were maybe 40,000 people there and not a peep out of the major news outlets, and now 200 people rally about something different and there it is.
