Why?
To show to the powerful and to the world,
that we are still here,
that we still think, talk and act about real democracy, fairness, and human rights,
that we believe the world can and must be improved,
that texts are not just lame words but have meaning, which we will pursue.
How?
By printing out a text for real democracy, and carrying it visibly with you and showing it, wherever you are and wherever you can,
on one single day: on the 5th of November,
thus getting people that see us to wonder what that piece of paper is and means,
and inciting discussion and thinking about that meaning and its power.
The call
“So if you’ve seen nothing, if you see no reason to go out on the streets, then I would suggest that you allow the fifth of November to pass unmarked. But if you see what I see, if you feel as I feel, and if you would seek as I seek, then I ask you to stand beside me on the fifth of November 2011, everywhere, and together we shall give them a fifth of November that shall never, ever be forgot.” (Adapted from V for Vendetta).
Advantages
- Each person that takes part will make somebody think.
- Needs only some sort of paper, a printer or a pen. And a bit of courage to act.
- Be creative how you show the text to the world on the 5th of November: carry it visibly with you wherever you go / show it in public places / stick it on places visible / post it somewhere, etc.
- Do it individually. Or do it in groups.
- It’s peaceful, non-violent.
- It’s guaranteed by the human right to freedom of expression.

Wir werden nie eine echte Demokratie bekommen, so lang es Zinsen und eine nicht durch echte Werte gedeckte Währung haben.
Zinsen müssen verboten werden.
Geld muss durch begrenzte Werte gedeckt sein(Gold), damit es nicht ein Bankster in seinem Keller drucken kann.

In my bad english:
We will never get a true democracy, as long as it does not have interest rates and money backed by real values.
Interest must be banned.
Money should be covered by limited values(Gold), so it’s not a banker print it by it selves.
