Art activism has been a key element of social protest and social change. Four of our friends have been arrested and charged with "defacing public or private property," for pasting up a commemorative mural with water-dissolvable wheat paste (click here to watch a video of the mural action). They are facing a maximum sentence of up to 6 months in jail and a $1,000 fine. Please sign the petition and hit the submit button below to ask U.S. Attorney Ronald Machen Jr. to drop the charges.
