Day of protest
European policy making is affecting our every day lives and civil liberties more and more. The EU is increasingly imposing unnecessary and disproportionate governmental surveillance measures on us. We will not take this any longer. Let's carry our protest into the capital of the EU!
We invite you to join us for a protest march "Freedom not Fear - Stop the surveillance mania!" in Brussels on Saturday, 17 September 2011.

Saturday evening
We are thinking of offering a meeting place for those ones who like to spend the evening after the protest together. More informations will follow.
Important Information
Basics
Aims and advices
We intend to voice our concerns to politicians and the public. Therefore bring anything to show what our protest is about: signs, banners, flags, cctv-dummies, clothing, costumes or anything else.
Please do not use flags or signs of political parties that do not contain any (more or less substantial) message.
It's up to you if you like to shout, cry, sing, hug or remain in silence at all. Feel free to do anything like that, but please respect the people passing by. Affronting or flaming doesn't help at all and ist not solidary.
