Becky: I want to thank all of you for coming
today. I think we all agree that we need to
organize a protest...
Pedro: Hold on, Becky. We all want
to voice our opinion that we
oppose what is going on here, but
I’m not sure a protest is the answer.
Becky: With all due respect, Pedro, I think a
rally is the best way to do that.
Pedro: That may be, but I think we need to
consider a few things first. Taking to the
streets means coordinating a
lot of people. That means getting them
to show up, to march, and
to hold up signs. I’m not sure we
have enough time to pull it all off.
Becky: Don’t get me wrong. I’m not
in favor of doing anything half-
assed. If we decide to protest, we want
to do it right so that we get a lot of media
coverage. I’m confident that we have
enough people and time to get it all done.
Pedro: Okay, but another thing we should be
ready for is a counter protest. The
other side isn’t going to take things lying
down.
Becky: You’re right, and we’ll take that into
consideration. Is there any more discussion
before we start on the planning? No? Okay,
let’s get down to business.
