Photo Post: Mockus Rally, Plaza Victoria Pereira, May 11, 2010

Today Warren and I went to a campaign rally for Antanus Mockus. We also saw Enrique Penalosa and Garzon. I'm going to write about the experience in uno momento in a different post, but I didn't want it to be too long with pictures and everything else. So, here are a few of my favorite photos!

When we arrived. La vida es sagrada: Life is sacred. His main message tonight was that every life in Colombia is important and we need to value every person and protect every person. It was refreshing, but also made me sad that a message like that even needed to be spread.


Thumbs up, like Mockus. Notice the Mockus bracelet on the hand to the left.


Mockus and his team arrived very late (almost 2 hours!), but it was worth it!


"The next chapter of Colombia will be written with pencils, not blood." (Regarding his push towards education.)


It was a lot of fun to be part of this event. More info in the next post.
