We are launching the project The Color Orange to highlight the violations of the human rights in China on the occasion of the Olympic Games in Beijing August 2008. The idea is both sophisticated and simple: We want to introduce The Color Orange as a symbol of the protest against the human rights violations in China. The strict censorship can ban the use of obvious symbols of human rights, but the use of The Color Orange cannot be banned. So we will encourage sports people and spectators to make vast and creative use of the color for clothing and all sorts of accessories. It can be anything, like an orange hat, camera bag, tie, pen, paper, dress, suit, bag etc. Even pealing an orange will be considered a poignant statement. Support the project by sending the appeal request to your own mailing list . Subscribe to the info-list and the support llist

| Saturday, 26th April, 4 people from The Color Orange went to Hong Kong, to paint the sculpture "The Pillar of Shame" orange, and in cooperation with the HK Alliance promote The Color Orange and human rights. The immigration authorities denied the activists access, refusing to give any cause. See photos, press releases and more here.
