As you've probably seen all over the news, the Olympic torch relay is
coming through this Wednesday, April 9th. San Francisco is the only
city in all of North America to host the torch for the Beijing
Olympics.

In recent weeks, Tibetans have been rising up inside of Tibet. The
Chinese crackdown has been outrageous.

Already in London and Paris, people have told China that they can't use
the Olympics as a political tool to legitimize their illegal occupation
of Tibet. And it's especially insulting that they're running the torch
over Mt. Everest in Tibet and all through the occupied areas.

Now San Francisco will be joining the chorus of voices from around the
world calling for a free Tibet.

Please join us on Wednesday, April 9th along the route!
