The City of Brotherly Love got its first exposure to the Guantánamo cell replica today – the cell traveled all around Philadelphia today with canvassers covering over 8 miles of Center City Philly, with stops at Dilworth Plaza - the main event site, LOVE park, the Ben Franklin Parkway, Independence Mall, Old City, South Street, and Rittenhouse Square, passing out almost 3,000 flyers about the event.
News of the event is spreading – even without flyering throughout the city, posters, radio promotion, and word of mouth have already started to spark interest – canvassers had many great conversations. Stay tuned for the weekend – Philly promises to be an exciting stop on the national tour.

Hi Larry,
We’re working right now on DC (June 25-29) then hopefully the conventions, ST Louis and LA. We’d love to come up to the Pacific NWest, but we need to raise more money first!!
Cheers!
