Civil Disobedience Campaign To Be Launched Today

By ZimJournalists Arise.

Today, the Save Zimbabwe Campaign, a coalition of civic society groups and opposition political parties, launch a new wave of civil disobedience. Zimbabweans are expected to be making what the broad alliance refers to as ‘’Sounds of Freedom’’ Some of the actions will include beating pots, blowing car hooters, whistling, are expected to be part of these ‘’Sounds of Freedom.’’
The Save Zimbabwe Campaign comprises of organizations such as the NCA, Crisis Coalition in Zimbabwe, Christian Alliance among others. Both factions of the MDC are expected to participate.

This comes at a time when the MDC led by Morgan Tsvangirai has clearly failed to launch the long –awaited ‘’democratic resistance’’There are some who have been brave enough to go to the streets such as Women of Zimbabwe Arise, ZINASU and NCA albeit to the point that they have ceased to be really effective.

The government has ruthlessly crushed protests by the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions, that it is understandable that Tsvangirai and his gang have developed cold feet.

However as Zimbabwean citizens and journalists we can only hope that today’s planned action will be overwhelmingly supported and will work towards more effective action towards the Mugabe regime.
