The European elections are upon us and it looks as if we only have two options: Either you vote for a Europe in which the economy has an overriding importance, or you vote against Europe so that each nation moves itself behind their old borders. Loesje likes neither options. She wants a Europe united by people.
Toward a united world
Loesje worries about her friends in the Ukraine, the extreme right wing parties who are winning more and more seats all over Europe and in general she worries about the position of people in the European Union. You may ask: do we actually need a European Union? No, we need a United World. And yes, towards that united world a united Europe is a good step in the right direction. Not one that's mostly interested in economy, but one that puts people first: a Europe in which people meet, discover and exchange.
Go and talk with strangers, surprise yourself. The future of Europe and the world is too important to leave in the hands of economists, conservative en retro-nationalists. It's about us, you. That's why Loesje asks your help. With the help of people from all over Europe she made posters about Europe. The posters are translated in five different languages. Now it's time to spread the message.
How can you help?
Print the posters about Europe from www.loesje.org/posters and stick one or more on a nice (if possible recognizable) spot in your town or city. Take a picture of it and mail it to loesje@loesje.org. Loesje will share it on her Facebook and Twitter so that everyone in the world can see it, because from the Milky Way's point of view we all seem to be from the same village.
