Join Abeona parents tomorrow as we march for Francis Pop and the children of New Orleans — long neglected and unprotected. If you can’t be here with us, PLEASE — call your radio station, your television news, your local paper. We are not so naive that we believe our local government will change with a demonstration — we know that we need media, Big Media, attention to refocus eyes on the terror, tragedy, and suffering in our city.
If can join us, we are gathering at the Harrah’s fountain starting around 11 — look for the Abeona sign. Email or call me for more information.
