an email from a friend is attempting to raise awareness of a march to Tibet by exiles...text below

I wanted to let you all know about a march that left Mcleod Ganj on the 10th March
[anniversary of the Tibetan uprising in 1959]. The marchers are exiled Tibetans and international supporters and they endeavor to enter Tibet on foot, arriving at the beginning of the Olympics in Beijing. They want to protest China's occupation of Tibet and also divert some of the media attention that will be focused on the Beijing Olympics. The website about the march is  http://tibetanuprising.org/ and though they are asking for financial support, and I know a lot of you like me cannot
give that, they are also asking for the word to be spread especially to any media sources. If anyone has any connections to media outlets or can put something on a blog, facebook, website etc. I know it would be much appreciated by the inspiring people I met who will be marching.
