We are planning a monthly vigil for the vaccine injured in Times Square. We will keep it up until justice is done. The inspiration is the Mothers of the Disappeared in Buenos Aries during the Dirty War in the 70s and 80s. These were mothers of people who were disappeared for political reasons by the military junta that took over Argentina. About 30,000 disappeared. Our vaccine injured children have been disappeared by our government as well. Injured by government mandated policy and then disappeared by the refusal to acknowledge the damage done. The Mothers of the Disappeared gathered in a central square in Buenos Aries every week and brought pictures of their disappeared children and refused to go away. They adopted a white scarf as their symbol. U2 wrote a song about them. Eventually the junta fell. I have two questions, 1) Should we do this? And 2) what is the least difficult time for people to get to Times Square? I am thinking either during the week around noon or on a Saturday a little later in the afternoon, say 3. What do you think? Please share.
