Tibetans protesting at Independence Hall right now

To all you hippies with Tibetan prayer flags up in your dorm room: You better as fuck go to the following.

Today marks the 51st anniversary of the Tibetan Uprising Day, so a group of Philly Tibetans are peacefully protesting at Independence Hall. (They began with a vigil at 11:30 a.m. in Chinatown.)

You'll be able to see them at the Hall for the rest of the day. I recommend swinging by at 6 p.m., when the protesters will be welcoming a badass-sounding Tibetan who only goes by the name "Lhakpa," as he kicks off his motorcycle tour around the world to bring attention to Tibet's plight.
