[Fuusm-l] MOVCA Shoe Strike

[Mike Bailey]

The Shoe Strike is to remind people that the Climate Crises has not been a victim of the pandemic. It is growing stronger every day! The shoes stand in the places where all the past, current and future victims of Climate Chaos can not stand for themselves. This is a way for you to participate in the most extreme form of socially responsible protest we can think of. And a way to get rid of your old shoes 

The shoe strike in Parkersburg was such a success, we are going to do it again, in Williamstown, on August 29, from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm. And possibly again in Marietta in September. So we need all the shoe-ins we can gather. If your old shoes weren’t part of the first strike, please drop them off in or near the container on the wall next to the rear basement door of the church office/parlor building starting now and lasting through the last week of September. There are bags in the container. See attached pic.

Our plan, after all of our shoes are finished marching, is to give them all to the current Cobbler John, who is collecting shoes to repair if necessary and send them all to needy areas of the world.

Let me (Mike) know if you drop them off when rain is in the forecast. I will be collecting them regularly, but have had people drop off bags just after I did a collection run.

Mike
