The idea is both sophisticated and simple: We want to introduce The Color Orange as a symbol of the protest against human rights violations. The strict censorship can ban the use of obvious symbols of human rights, but the use of The Color Orange cannot be banned.
So we will encourage sports people and spectators, everyone, to make vast and creative use of the color for clothing and all sorts of accessories. It can be anything, like an orange hat, camera bag, tie, pen, paper, dress, suit, bag etc. Even pealing an orange will be considered a poignant statement.
'The worst enemy of life, freedom and the common decencies is total anarchy; their second worst enemy is total efficiency.'

The greatest danger we face is not any particular kind of thought. The greatest danger we face is absence of thought.

The Bill of Rights was not written to protect governments from trouble. It was written precisely to give the people the constitutional means to cause trouble for governments they no longer trusted.
