This full-page advertisement appeared on Page A9 in The New York Times yesterday (Tuesday 29 July 2008). Students for a Free Tibet raised U$51,000 from individual contributors to pay for it. I'm sure they'll be happy to still let you donate, so they can keep getting their message out.

AT EVERY OLYMPICS
THERE IS
ONE ATHLETE
WHO ENDS UP INSPIRING
THE WORLD WITH THEIR
COURAGE AND CHARACTER.
THERE IS
ONE ATHLETE
WHO ENDS UP INSPIRING
THE WORLD WITH THEIR
COURAGE AND CHARACTER.
WE'RE HOPING THAT ATHLETE
IS READING THIS.
IS READING THIS.
WHO WILL STAND UP FOR TIBET THIS SUMMER? As 11,000 competitors gather to stand up for their countries, we ask them this: Will one among you also stand up for Tibet? With the Olympics beckoning and the world looking to be inspired by your heroism, we remind you that 6 million Tibetans look to you for the very same thing. You can be there for Tibet, for they cannot. You can speak up for Tibet, for they have been silenced. The people of Tibet pass their torch to you. Will you carry it for them in Beijing?
