"Those in authority fear the
mask
for their power partly resides in identifying, stamping and cataloguing:
in knowing who you are [...]
Masking up releases our commonality, enables us to act together, to
shout as one to those who rule and divide us �we are all fools,
deviants, outcasts, clowns and criminals�. Today we shall give this
resistance a face; for by putting on our masks we reveal our unity; and
by raising our voices in the street together, we speak our anger at the
facelessness of power."
