New Flickr group — Zimbabwe: Peace, Justice, Freedom and Democracy

Flickr group

Please spread the word! We’ve started an interactive image group on Flickr. It’s called ‘Zimbabwe: Peace, Justice, Freedom and Democracy’ and is open to the public. All you need to do to start contributing your own pictures to the pool is set up a Flickr account. This is free and easy to do and can be done anonymously as well.

The picture pool has a purpose. Our pool is for images which lend themselves to the themes of Peace, Justice, Freedom and Democracy in Zimbabwe. If your pictures support that idea, then please do feel free to contribute them. In other words, this is not intended to be a pool for holiday or family pictures - there are groups on Flickr which cater to those images. We especially hope that non-Zimbabweans will join in to support the cause too!

This group has been set up to expose the truth, share the triumphs, and work together for a peaceful free country where democracy and justice prevail. It’s meant to create an area where people can easily share their images.

Expose the truth: Your images should reveal the human rights violations and deteriorating social conditions in our country. Please include descriptions with your images so that people unfamiliar with Zimbabwean issues can gain a better insight into the situation in our country.

Share triumphs: Images where the human spirit prevails in spite of all; images of campaigning and activism

Work together: Non-Zimbabweans are very welcome to contribute images too. Feel free to imaginatively come up with campaign images and ideas and share them here to inspire us all, give us hope or support our actions. If you are a cartoonist, an ilustrator or a graphic designer, we’d love to have someone like you supporting the struggle!

All images must adhere to the Sokwanele principles of non-violent activism towards freedom, justice and democracy for all.

Images posted here might be used on Sokwanele mailings, our blog, or our website towards our ultimate and shared objective of bringing about peace, justice, freedom and democracy in Zimbabwe. This means that your images will reach many email subscribers who do not have access to the internet.

Any images that contravene the Sokwanele principles will be removed from the pool.

Sokwanele Principles

Sokwanele - Zvakwana is a peoples’ movement, embracing supporters of all pro-democratic political parties, civic organizations and institutions.

Sokwanele - Zvakwana will never aspire to political office.

Sokwanele - Zvakwana is a peoples’ force through which democracy will be restored to the country and protected jealously for future generations to ensure that Zimbabweans will never be oppressed again.

SOKWANELE – ZVAKWANA – ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
