Budskab Fra Græsrødderne

Vi vil ikke være ofre for et døende system, Vi har hænder til at bygge vores eget!!!! ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------------Messa ge From The Grassroots is a peoples movement started by the musician/composer/human rights activist, Thomas Koppel, before his much too sudden death in february 2006.The world is in Chaos: Illegal wars, thousands of people dying for big powers' lies and greed. Xenophobia, rascism, fascism rules the world and it is time for it to stop!We can nolonger witness innocent people being killed for big powers' hunger for more money and oil.We can nolonger take part in sending troops to Iraq, Lebanon, Palestina to fight in illegal wars, killing man, woman and child and being killed themselves for someone elses crimes.We can nolonger just sit and have rascist governments, making decicions over our heads making our countries xenophobic, rascist and hateful.We can nolonger just sit and watch thousands and thousands of people dying of hunger in Africa. And AIDS, where there is a cure but just not presented to the less fortunate. We can nolonger just sit and watch the genocide in Sudan. And the list goes on.Television is starting to look like a bad playstation game, as if everything shown just is fiction. They deliver it with big dramatic music and plastic anchors and it might all seem like a movie, but it's real.Though most of the stories the TV present are lies. Don't just take their words for an answer. Much more happens than what they say, and things aren't always squeeky clean behind the big curtain.We have to seek deeper, search yourself and you shall find. Horrible things are happening, Though you might not think that it effects you, it does!The earth is such a beatiful place and we have to take care of it as a child on our arms.The time is now to wake up, mobilize, talk to your neighbors, to the people at your school, your colleagues, your friends and family. That's how we can make a change, make people aware and start acting upon what you think is going wrong.As Thomas Koppel said in his letter to Denmark:" This great change is not something we fight for for years - to see nothing will come out of it anyway. The change begins, in the same instance we make our decision. Freedom is in the process itself - when we realize we can do things on our own. Forget about watching tv tonight and talk to someone about what you can do.What we need from ourselves is: that we preserve our respect for ourselves,respect for others - regardless of skin color and beliefs; that we hold on to love, solidarity, the dream, the poetry, the humor, the beauty, the big heart, the open mind, the common sense. It is all old virtues - becoming new and fine when used. All of it uniting real popular Danish culture with all other peoples' cultures on this earth. When we dig deep down underneath greed and lies, the dreams, the tears and laughter the same all over the world. All the thousands of wonderful flowers, that make the culture of this planet, come out of one single root that all people understand.That's the longing for freedom.
