July 21st marks the birthday of Robin McLaurin Williams, beloved actor, comedian and philanthropist. Despite a plethora of other television and movie roles, Mr. Williams has most often been remembered in his role as the loveable alien, Mork. The rainbow suspenders, previously used as part of Mr. Williams’ mime regalia, were an almost ever-present costume feature for Mork and became part of the character’s persona.

Thus, we, the signers of this petition, wish to have Mr. Robin Williams commemorated annually on July 21st, by the wearing of rainbow suspenders and the creation of World Rainbow Suspenders Day.

Thank you.
