This is where it will start. Where all races will meet to network, where all gender and ages will meet. Talk to one another and plan more future events and organize. An event where Anarcho Punk meets political Hip Hop where Vegan Straight Edge meets Black Panthers where Anarchist meets Communist where Animal Rights activist meets Community Organizers where pacifist meets revolutionaries where Feminist meets Environmentalist where Punk Rock meets all races and colors In the past so many words were put together in so many different ways in so many different times. It's about time for us to break out from the same old scene circle - Come and be part of a history breaking event in the Los Angeles Punk scene. If you have any ideas and suggestions let us know. diyzine@yahoo.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The next day on April 22nd at 2pm- ROCK AGAINST RACISM Meeting - everyone is invited! Open meeting on Building a Movement at: YJC/Chuco Justice Center/Cop Watch Office, 235 W. Martin Luther King Blvd. L.A., CA. 90037 Tel: (323) 235-4243 Some of the topics we will discuss at the meeting: -open discussion; where we can hear people's ideas and suggestions. -Sending books to prisoners. Not just political prisoners but all prisoners. It's not like the 60's or 70's, the political movement in prison rarely exists now. When asked by comrades what they need the most; they always say prison support. Support letters, updates on what is going on in the streets and sending out revolutionary study books. (Example of such outreach: Books to prisoners). -We need social events. Because right now we are only meeting each other at rallies and benefit shows. A social event like potlucks, unity gatherings so people can get to know each other, make friends, and not only meet at political events. -We need to organize study groups where there are weekly political education classes with open discussion. -We need to have an emergency phone tree. Where we can car pool to have court solidarity, or if someone is arrested we can immediately follow with jail support. -We need to plan more events in the streets and in venues, with bands, speakers and organizations. Form collectives and organizations on school grounds and in our own communities. -We need to network with other groups on a global level. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
