Hi everyone, this is Leonid Volkov, and I have news for you: from this point on, only you can determine how many people will come out for the Spring March on March 1. As of today, the organizing committee has done everything it could: 920,000 leaflets, 20,000 stickers, and 7,500 posters have been printed and are being distributed; promo videos have been produced; online ad campaigns have been launched; and pickets are being announced and held every day.
That said, our opponents have been working hard too: 11 applications for mass events were filed for March 1, and our venue was approved in a remote district of Moscow (though one familiar to N), and unlike the, ahem, “Anti-Maidan” movement, we were given neither outdoor advertising nor TV airtime. On top of that, a number of paid services have (as usual) refused to work with us.
There are only a couple of days left until March 1, and a great deal depends on them. Fortunately, we still have our main secret campaigning resource: you. As always, no one but you will invite your friends, colleagues, moms, grandmothers, and neighbors.
Everyone knows that friends are best reached through social media, colleagues can be reminded about the march right now, and parents should be called. But what should you do about your neighbors? Exactly—this is where the good old DMP comes to the rescue.
ACF staff have already tested it on their own neighbors and are expecting to see them at the march.
