Dear Mr. Boesch,
Media Freedom Foundation/Project Censored has joined a coalition of some twenty-five social justice organizations and occupy groups to protest the San Francisco Bohemian Club’s practices at your annual summer encampments.
We are holding an Occupy Bohemian Grove protest in Monte Rio on July 14, 2012. For publicity and information on this event see: www.occupybohemiangrove.com...
Occupy groups from five cities are involved in protesting your annual summer encampment of the rich and powerful 1%. Given that it takes $588,000 in assets to be in the top 1% of the wo
Given that it takes $588,000 in assets to be in the top 1%
We Recommend that:
1. The Bohemian Grove recognize the rights of humankind to enjoy a fair share of the common heritage of the ancient redwood forest by opening the Grove to tours on a regular basis when club members are not assembled—
2. The Bohemian Club begin a policy of admitting women and arranging the Grove to accommodate both genders—
3. The lakeside chats and other addresses by key policy officials be made public on-line and transcripts prepared and published—
4. The Cremation of Care ceremony be transformed into a building of unity of care in the world and the ceremony be made public on-line—
5. The Bohemian Club set up an on-line live feed from the main stage and field circle, as events are occurring.

that makes me a ` member ` of the 1% how many more ` 1%ers ` are there on ATS - and how many will actually admit it

Don't get me wrong, I would love to see wrong doing exposed, but isn't this a bit much to be requesting from a private club ?

I'll be taking my documentary video crew to the west coast for this one. Probably have to stand on a couple of appleboxes to get a decent shot, there will be so many filmmakers and news crews around.

Really? I'll be there; I'm on the committee setting up the protest...so I'll be there early in the morning. There are going to be plenty of media there from all over. RT is going to be there and we have several groups who will be live streaming. If you want, u2u me and perhaps we can touch base. Will you be there for the 14th or 22nd?

There will be much documentation presented here and of course warning and links for the live streaming before the 14th arrives. Regarding the interviews with the Grovers...I think that the target audience is the 99%. Someone in the committee rightfully stated recently, regarding this letter oddly enough, that their opinion/response shouldn't be considered and doesn't matter...
We just need to know what they are doing and tell everyone...

Treating the enemy that carries all the cards and has all the power with a little dignity, while you plead your case, might actually help certain things to get turned around.

I will attempt, if possible, to talk to some of them if I see them...to give them positive spin with the protest...I don't think they are all malicious and part of what we could do is certainly show them our point of view in hopes that they have just never considered it before...
