Free showing of "We Will Not Be Beaten"
7:00pm Lucy Parsons Center 549 Columbus in the South End
Made in 1978 by feminists of the Transition House. Women talk about their
experiences with batterers, children and family, police, judges, lawyers,
and landlords. Also speaking are the founders of Transition House, social
workers and volunteers, and speakers at the August 1976 women's march.
The screening is free, but we strongly encourage people to bring
donations to support battered women in Texas.
Thursday November 12
Pack the Courtroom for Tariq!
10:00am Moakley Federal Courthouse. 1 Courthouse way in Boston.
This is the first hearing, where the judge reviews the evidence and
determines if it warrants proceeding, so it's important that we fill the
courthouse. Let's turn out big for our brother Tariq and show that the
community strongly opposes this injustice!
The hearing begins at 10:00 a.m. and probably won't go beyond 1:00 p.m.
REMEMBER TO BRING A PHOTO ID. LET'S KEEP THE DRESS PROFESSIONAL IN THE
COURTHOUSE. AND CELL PHONES WILL NOT BE ALLOWED IN THE COURTHOUSE.
Thursday November 12
A talk and forum on “The Great Western Massachusetts Sedition Trial:
Twenty Years Later”
7:15pm- University of Massachusetts Amherst- School of Management Room 137.
Participants will include Ray Luc Levasseur and members of the 1989
Springfield sedition trial defense team.
