****HEROINES LIVE
This sorta falls under the LIVE category... ;)

This Friday, May 6th, 7-7:30pm the anti-queer hate mongering preacher
Fred Phelps will be protesting the play 'The Laramie Project' at the
Durham School of the Arts. He has received a permit to protest only on
the sidewalk in front of the school, not on the school grounds or
anywhere else. Therefore, it will be extremely easy to block him and
his message of hate.

The Laramie Project tells the story of Matthew Shepard, a queer man who
was beaten to death in Laramie a few years back.

Phelps has been preaching his message of hate for years. He runs the
websites godhatesfags.com and godhatesamerica.com. Check those out for
examples of his disgusting hate-filled messages.

Come to the Durham School of the Arts at around 6:30pm on Friday to take action against this man! DSA is 400 North Duke Street in Durham,
opposite the West Corporation Street corner. Bring noise making
devices, banners, puppets, and anything else that may come in handy.

There will be an event at Duke University East Campus starting at 1pm
and going until near the protest time.
