Faces For Lebanon: Kickstarting a global campaign of human solidarity
What was started by our friend Wael as a photo he took of himself in ‘silent protest’, has turned into a campaign that is taking on a life of its own.
Yesterday, in Kuwait, a campaign under the name Faces for Lebanon has started: A show of human solidarity with Lebanon, with aim of creating a global wave of people who are showing their faces to protest against the violence that the Lebanese people are being subjected to.
This is not a political campaign, as it aims to unite the voices of as many people as possible, on a global scale..
Photos can be uploaded from the site’s home page or by sending a photo attachment by email to myface{at}faces4lebanon{dot}org
Interested in spreading the campaign? Material is here.
Major Kuwaiti newspapers like Al Qabas and Assysasah have published the campaign’s ads already. A major media push will go in in the coming days in Kuwait and other countries.

ooh! i’m in that one!
Man,
go and check the website—So many people are abusing it! I mean, photoshop-added white blocks, http://faces4lebanon.org/faces/person/76
and it’s becoming impossible to go to previous pages of browsing images.
I think you shoud set a criteria, but I don’t know whether you’re involved or not.
