Free Tibet-NYC

Dear friends, Come out

This Monday, outside the NYC Chinese Consulate, we will deliver a global call urging the Chinese authorities to open a dialogue with the Dalai Lama and end the violence in Tibet. Over 1.3 million people around the world have signed the Tibet petition, and now we need a couple of New York Avaaz supporters to step up, represent global citizens, and help us deliver the petition.

Monday is a Global Day of Action for Tibet. Hundreds of rallies for solidarity with Tibetans will take place at cities around the world--and our petition will be delivered at Chinese Embassies and consulates from New York to Sydney. If you're free on Monday between 11am and 3pm please join us at the Chinese Consulate on 42nd Street and 12th Avenue. Throughout the morning we'll be waving flags, lighting candles and generally showing our support for the Tibetan people. Then, before the consulate closes at 3pm, we will deliver our petition to Chinese officials in front of the media. If you can make it, we'd love to meet you!

For more information, please email info@avaaz.org with "New York Rally" in the subject line, or call Kala Mendoza on 917 595 0140.

We look forward to seeing you on Monday.

With hope,

Ricken Patel and the entire Avaaz team
