BlackWomenInEuropeBlog's picture

Cross posted from Jewels in the Jungle Blog:

I witnessed the July 24th Berlin speech by US presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama like millions of people here in Germany and all across Europe experienced it___ glued to our TV screens viewing our favorite news channel(s) and being mesmerized by what was yes, an outstanding young American politician at an historical point in his political career and in world history. Five days after the speech at Berlin’s Siegessäule (Victory Column) Germany is still buzzing with the news, the numerous editorials, and debates about the candidate Barack Obama.

Anyone in the Munich-area, that would like to hop on the “Obama Express” bus to Berlin, who has not already reserved a seat, should send an e-mail post-haste to:

dag-munich (at) democratsabroad.org.

The bus is open to eyeryone, not just DA members or US citizens (although the more of those the better).

We will be leaving Munich sometime on July 23rd (as early as possible) and returning very late on the 24th.

These dates are now jour fixe!
