EPO Munich protest 2022

Summary: We urge all EPO workers based in Munich to attend tomorrow's protest; it's not a waste of time, it sends a strong and effective message

"It's not an effective protest if it's not pissing people off."

--John Scalzi, Lock In



"One demonstration is equivalent to one hundred explanations."

--Mokokoma Mokhonoana



"Don't plead with anyone if you were not at fault, you'll only look inferior, stupid and funny, bolster your ego by doing the undoing."

--Michael Bassey Johnson



"Be the type of silence that screams by example."

--T.F. Hodge



"If not thought carefully, our solidarity for just causes can backfire, especially when we are selective in reacting against injustice."

--Louis Yako



"To sin by silence when they should protest makes cowards of men."

--Abraham Lincoln



"I'm always happy when I'm protesting."

--Richard Stallman
