Free Movie Night!: "When the Levees Broke" Part 1 @123 Space



As the world watched in horror, Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans on August 29, 2005. Like many who watched the unfolding drama on television news, director Spike Lee was shocked not only by the scale of the disaster, but by the slow, inept and disorganized response of the emergency and recovery effort. Lee was moved to document this modern American tragedy, a morality play witnessed by people all around the world.

Speakers from the Aftershock Action Alliance (http://aftershockaction.blogspot.com/) will be on hand to give information about community preparedness to Natural Disaters.

7pm Tuesday November 20th.

Anti Fascista asesinado por Nazis en Madrid/ Anti Fascist Killed by Nazi in Madrid


Asesinado un joven antifascista y dos heridos graves en Madrid tras una manifestación
Un joven de 16 años, Carlos, ha resultado muerto, de una puñalada en el corazón a manos de un neonazi, esta mañana en Madrid.
(desde Kaos en la red):

Según informaciones que nos han llegado, al parecer los hechos ocurrieron de la siguiente manera: Los antifascistas subieron a un vagón de metro y reconocieron al nazi que llevaba una sudadera de Tree-stroke (marca de ropa nazi). Cuando se vio descubierto, este saco el cuchillo de caza y acuchilló a varios compañeros, produciéndose los dos apuñalamientos. Los antifascistas trataron de varias maneras de coger al nazi, pero el asesino huyó a través de los vagones hacia una esquina del andén, allí roció a los activistas abundantemente con polvo de un extintor, para poder escapar amparado en la humareda. Aún así, los antifascistas lo alcanzaron en la calle y lo redujeron. Uno de los heridos logro llegar hasta la calle por su propio pié, el otro trató de caminar por el andén derramando mucha sangre hasta que calló al suelo, inconsciente.

Ninguna agresión sin respuesta!
------------------------------

Reports are coming in that a 16 year old anti fascist named Carlos was stabbed and killed this morning by a Nazi as Carlos was on his way to an anti nazi demonstration. The attack occurred on the subway in Madrid, Spain. Two other anti fascists were injured in this same attack. In response demonstrators blocked streets in Madrid and attacked banks.

No agression without a response!

Carlos RIP....

Free Movie Night!: "La Haine" @123 Space



Today! November 6th 7pm
123 Space-Free Movie Night!
Featuring "La Haine" (Hate):
"La Haine" Tells the story of 3 young men raised in the projects outside of Paris. Following the murder of their friend at the hands of the police, the young men deal with feelings of rage, revenge and sadness within a racist and contradictory society.

This story, set in riot torn ghettos to the hip hop beats of MC Solar, is even more relevent today in the wake of mass rioting of immigrant youth throughout the ghettos of France and the election of anti-immigrant, 'law and order' President Sarkozy.

Also we will show the music video 'La Rage' by radical female French MC Keny Arkana (with subtitles!)
free food will be served!
