Our protest message is: Cry Beloved Zimbabwe - Defend your right to love!

WHY ARE WE ARE CRYING?

We say CRY BELOVED ZIMBABWE.....

* For those who have died from political violence.
* For rape victims and the victims of politically motivated rape used as a form of torture.
* For our hungry children and orphans that we can no longer afford to feed, clothe and educate.
* For our children living in exile as refugees
* For those who die of HIV/AIDS without access to healthcare.
* For many of us have lost our jobs and our self-respect.
* For all women who continue to be discriminated against in all spheres of society.
* We are crying to put out the fire of hate burning our beloved Zimbabwe.

Zimbabweans are told to HATE but choose to LOVE! This will be a better place when the power of love replaces the love of power. We want Zimbabweans to LOVE each other, help us by stopping this hate fire.

STOP spreading HATE:

* Newspapers, radio and television must balance their messages.
* Give us back our freedom of expression - remove AIPPA and POSA so we can meet freely.
* Restore the healthcare system - Treatment and medicines availability is almost zero.
* Disband the Youth Militia - our children come home infected with hate and diseases.
* Political violence is increasing: We must be free to vote for the candidate of our choice.
* Corruption must be stamped out everywhere without favouring a small group.
