MY PROTEST STORY AND AFTERMATH
Well, I attended my first protest on Saturday, as I have been a victim of disconnection and I am passionate about ending that abuse.
I attended with Jenna who is one of my best friends, her husband Dallas, Astra (who I was so happy to finally meet, what a sweetheart!!), and two of my "wog" friend who after hearing my story were compassionate and cool enough to come out and help. We also met up with RLSteve who I finally got to meet (posts on this board too!).
Jenna laid out the report pretty well. I did about 5 interviews and when Jenna, Astra and I arrived to PAC we were all immediately inundated. I did one for Anonymous TV which will be up shortly, ABC, a USC documentary, and a few other Anons. I also did one for the WE (Women's Entertainment) channel, and now they have contacted me about doing a whole feature and segment of me and my story. Yay!!
So, as many of you know if you were there, I was the one in the bright green dress hanging out with Jenna. At the Hollywood Blvd building, her and I tried our hardest to get my sister who is working there still to come down and see me. Her name is Kelly Zacks and I wanted to let her know that I am pregnant and she is going to be an Aunt. Jenna even rallied everyone up and we were chanting "Kelly Zacks, Kelly Zacks" to try and get her attention.
We also tried calling up to Reception 4 times the day of the protest and they kept telling us that Kelly was in a meeting, or unavailable.
Then, on Sunday, the day after the protest, Jenna and I called again for my sister. Jenna recorded this phone call which was the most bizarre yet. The women insisted that it was up to my sister if she wanted to talk to me, and when we asked if she had said she didn't want to talk to me the women said no. Then she said there is obviously something going on between me and my sister and it's not her job to get into it, but that she could only relay a message. I told her that I had NO word from her or indication there was "something going on" so where the hell did she come off indicating that there was? It was truly bizarre, and of course after many minutes of being put on hold and beating around the bush, we just left a message.
Later that night, I decided to try calling my parents because they don't have my new cell phone number. I got the answering machine, but had trouble hearing so started pressing buttons and said "What the hell?" My dad rushed to the phone saying, "Kelly? Kelly?" He sounded really concerned and upset. I said, "Hi, how are you?" He said he was okay and asked what happened? I asked what he meant, and he was like, "Wait, who is this?" I told him it was his daughter Amy, not Kelly. He sounded really scared and pissed off at me, and said that he couldn't do this, he had to hang up the phone right now and that I knew why and what was going on. Then he hung up on me.
I can only gather that shit is hitting the fan with my sister. She is probably going to be offloaded from the Sea Organization, or sent to another Continent, or something. I don't really know what is going on, but I will keep everyone updated.
Thanks to everyone who has posted videos, pictures and messages about my sister and helping spread the word. It IS making a difference. Thanks to Anonymous, you guys are absolutely amazing, courageous and super nice!
