Ive created a new, activist-driven photo action for the disappeared Sri Lankan journalist Prageeth Eknaligoda. For more information on his case, please see tinyurl/8ywhkuk. The idea is to have people take photos of themselves or their friends, relatives, etc., holding a sign saying Where is Prageeth? (or the equivalent in a language other than English). Then they would put the photo in the body of an email (and not as an attachment) and send the email message to [email protected]. The photo would then automatically show up on a Flickr page that Ive set up for this action (see flickr/photos/whereisprageeth). The subject line of the email will appear as the title for the photo, so people should give some thought as to what they want the photos title to be and then insert that as the subject line for the email. We do already have a sign for photo actions for Prageeth. Its on page 21 of the Sri Lanka Activist Toolkit (the toolkit is at amnestyusa.org/pdfs/SriLankaToolkitSummer2014.pdf). Or people could create their own signs. Id like to get as many photos as possible on the Flickr page by next January 24 (the fifth anniversary of Prageeths disappearance). Thanks for any help you can give on this. Take care. Jim McDonald Sri Lanka Country Specialist Amnesty International USA
