Russell Simmons Message For Mosque Protestors

coexsm b9a2 Russell Simmons Message For Mosque Protestors

Legendary hip-hop mogul turned political activist Russell Simmons has a message for those who are protesting the building of a mosque near Ground Zero. And he has a unique pulpit from which to broadcast his message—his 10th story apartment windows overlooking the location where the Twin Towers once stood.

From Boing Boing:

Earlier this morning Glen E Friedman got a call from pal Russell Simmons asking for help on a new project to send a message about the current Ground Zero Mosque hullabaloo.

Glen and Russell collaborated similarly some years back on what is now known as The Liberty Street Protest—massive antiwar signs housed in the windows of Russell’s apartment, which is literally across the street from Ground Zero.

This new visual protest today occupies those very same windows. It addresses all who believe that the First Amendment and freedom of religion applies only to them.
