Vote Rev Billy For Mayor Of NYC

It’s our Democracy, stupid!

All problems can be traced to our inability to convene, to meet – physically – in public space. Meeting in public, the oldest form of Democracy, is also the most modern.  It is resisted by a byzantine system of police permits, insurance, surveillance.  Our campaign for mayor must pull the wires out of the ears, get up off the couch, go outside and find more and more citizens…  So this weekend, we’re using our headquarters as a musical trampoline – to jump out into the streets and parks. -Rev
