They have also published an e-book, which goes into a bit more depth on the rise of online people-power – We thought you might be interested in a read at some point. It’s here:
The Tecoma fight gets a mention in the e-book too, by the way!
As our way of saying thank you to Change.org in helping Tecoma become one of the largest community based petition facilitated in Australia we ask that you share this video within your own networks.
Another great article in this week’s Leader newspapers
The “Knitting Nanas” have been one of the many strings to our campaign’s bow as was shown at Monday’s Communities in Control conference.
Feel free to place some positive comments on this article. The “haters” perception of protesters is to paint a negative picture of assumed unemployed and “professional activists” Our Picket Knitters have quite simply dispelled that myth and we thank them for their continued passion.
