From Rhonda T:

Many people are suffering in America this Holiday Season, especially the 99ers.  It is time for all of us to come together and help the 99ers and each other.  It is also time for 99ers to step out and help ourselves.  Beyond politics, anger or blame, many Americans need to know they are not forgotten.  99ers, the unemployed, underemployed, small and family businesses, those working paycheck to paycheck: the middle class is being forced into poverty by our own government.  Please join in this peaceful moment at your City Hall next Monday, December 20, from 6 - 7 pm (local time), for a candlelight vigil for the suffering, the forgotten, the middle class, and for HOPE.  Bring your candle.  The politicians don't respect us, so let's take a moment to respect each other.

Please join with us. RSVP  today and connect with 99ers and supporters in your area.  For other questions, please email:

Thank you,

  3. Here is the list of cities for the vigil, so far. I know there are many more coming in. To connect with 99ers in these areas, please RSVP. If your city isn't listed, and you are having a vigil, please RSVP soon to find other 99ers near you. I'll send an email out tomorrow by state.

  8. @Anon/Denver: Hi, thanks for posting. When you posted, your time, I was already at our 6p event here in NYC, so not able to resp in a timely way that may have been helpful. Also, no other way to reach you, which is why we asked everyone to RSVP and we can hook them up with nearby 99ers. The zips are from the two ppl who sent in the RSVP. Many folks rec'd an email with 99ers in their area and it would have been great if you had RSVP'd also. Oh well, next time.

    There is a great activist 99er in Denver who I suggest you contact: Kelly W. writes for the examiner; I find her work extremely informative:
    Denver Unemployment Examiner co_unemployment@live.com

    Please tell her you "know" Kian. Happy Holidays & get ready; we are just getting warmed up!

  9. @Easton: Were you able to get together? I sent out what I had for PA & So Jersey together. Only 1 from Easton sent in the RSVP and they were a maybe. No contact info for anyone else. Pls let us know; email any pics/vids to info@flashmobs4jobs.org and we'll get them up. Thanks, Kian
