What is a LIGHT PROTEST?
A light protest is similar to a normal protest (the kind you hear about in the news or in the papers) but with several main differences:
- A light protest unites millions of people around the world.
- A light protest invites people to take a simple act on a specific moment in time, for a single goal.
- A light protest is a new global medium which enhances the power of one person to make a stand.
- A light protest will always fight for a noble cause, such as human rights, freedom of choice, thought, belief and so on.
- A light protest is non-profit, and non-violent!
Remember, that a light protest depends on each and every one of us making our stand on the same day, and inviting other people & friends to join.
It's as simple as that and very effective!

Archbishop Desmond Tutu to the Dalai Lama: We stand with you
(Photo taken by Carey Linde in Vancouver, Canada in 2004 - Wikimedia Commons)
Dear Members,
Archbishop Desmond Tutu has recently stepped forward to express concern in a letter at what he called the deterioration of the human rights situation in Tibet.
We the undersigned Nobel Peace Prize Laureates, human rights leaders and concerned individuals wish to express our concern at the current deterioration of the human rights situation in Tibet, and the apparent breakdown of the talks between the Chinese government and emissaries of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. We are dismayed at the lack of any concrete progress toward resolving the conflict over the autonomy and religious freedom of the Tibetan people, and urge all parties involved to redouble their effort to achieve this vital goal.
"To our dear friend His Holiness the Dalai Lama, we say: we stand with you. You define non-violence and compassion and goodness. Clearly China does not know you. It is our sincere hope that they will. We call on China's government to know His Holiness the Dalai Lama, as we and so many others have come to know him during the long decades he has spent in exile.
The South African Nobel Peace Prize laureate asks us to raise our voices in support of the Dalai Lama and human rights.
Please sign the letter today and stand with them for the future of the Tibetan religion and culture.
In order for the signatures in support of Bishop Desmond Tutu's protest to reach him, please link directly to the original online posting from Mary Wald at TheCommunity.com. We have agreed to publish only part of this letter and link directly to The Community site where you can read the full text and sign in support. Please encourage your friends to do the same...
With thanks and gratitude,
Renee Sigel - iPeace Editor
