National Coalition Against Censorship
Promoting freedom of thought, inquiry and expression, and opposing censorship in all its forms.
This is from an attendant at the protest organized by Transformer on Thursday, Dec. 2nd: The protest’s silence was very effective. The rows standing mute along the entire width of north steps of the Portrait Gallery for about 25 minutes until the museum closed at 7:00 was eloquent and impactful in a way beyond the quantity of supporters or passion of speeches. Security guards did not try to disperse those standing in the path between the entrance and the sidewalk.
