Source (http://www.tgijp.org/giraldo/)

When: 8:00am – 9:30am Monday July 30th, 2007.
Where: Civic Center Courthouse, 400 McAllister Street @ Polk St, San Francisco.
Clothing: Wear RED, as Alexis has chosen the color as a symbol of the hurt and pain caused by the violence and discrimination against our communities, as well as a way to express power in loving solidarity. If you are planning on going into the courtroom, please bring other articles of non-RED clothing as the judge has asked us to stop this practice in the courtroom.
