Save The Gulf. Protest Posters and Buttons
Growing up I spent many summers waking up at the crack of dawn to go catch blue crabs in the bayous of the gulf coast with my dad and grandfather. As I grew older, we would drive from Houston to New Orleans to go eat gumbo and fresh crawfish. I still think New Orleans has some of the best seafood I have ever eaten. Seriously, turtle soup is amazing. Just ask my grandmother.
It was during these trips to Galveston and Louisiana that I really began to understand that there are people in the world that don't have desk jobs and literally live off the bounty of the bayous and estuaries of the gulf coast. Over the last two months the BP oil spill has been heartbreaking for me. With hurricane season upon us there is no telling how the spill will affect the rest of the Gulf as well as Florida and the eastern seaboard. Like most folks I feel pretty powerless and want to do my part to help and to voice my own frustration.
Whether you are on the front lines of the spill or want to voice your concern at a local rally, we hope that you will find our posters and buttons useful in voicing your opinion. In addition, we have provided some links to resources online where you can donate and become involved.
