The Freedom Movement grows …. it’s contagious. My SION colleague Anders Gravers just gave me the good news:
SIOE can happily present that we have found a very good location for the Muhammed cartoon exhibition from Texas.
The new place is “Den sorte diamant” (The Black Diamond) in Copenhagen. It is the same place where Hizb ut Tahrir have their meetings where they talk about how to make Denmark islamic – so a really good choice for the exhibition.
The programme includes a presentation from various speakers about freedom of speech and democracy and their importance.
A known artist will present and talk about the drawings seen from an artists perspective.In this exhibition we will also reveal a few new drawings – made especially for this event – that depict koranic verses. Koran-verses are not forbidden to be shown according to islamic rules.The two groups of pictures will be compared and we will discuss which ones are most “offensive”.The list of speakers will be announced later.The exhibition takes place at Den Sorte Diamant, Copenhagen the 15th of AugustAs the exhibition room is not very big, we will divide the exhibition in two similar events, so that as many people as possible have the possibility to attend one of them.The first exhibition will be from 1 pm to 3 pm and the next from 3.30 – 5.30 pm.There are only a few tickets available so please book in advance.
