SCOTLAND’S ENOCH KENT TO PERFORM FREE CONCERT
Saturday 19 March 2005 at 7:00 PM
At Old Lynn Concerts in Lynn, PA

One of the founding fathers of the modern UK folk music scene, Enoch Kent, comes to us from Scotland via Canada, where he now makes his home. Although Kent (who is a respected star of British TV and Radio) has been performing
around the world for over 50 years -- he continues to write and record. In fact, he has relesed three new, critically acclaimed CD’s since 2002 - after celebrating his 70th birthday!

Enoch’s music covers a wide range... from traditional story ballads to gritty political songs, to songs of the
working folk. His tunes are rooted in the traditional Scottish style but the characters who populate his songs are universal in their appeal. Join us for another wonderful evening of music and fun!

Opening Act:- NEPA’s own finger style guitar wizard, Jim Dougher, will kick things off at 7:00 PM sharp!

Where: The Lynn Church in Lynn, PA. 9 miles north of Tunkhannock & 1/2 mile west of PA Route 29.

Protest on 2nd Anniv of Iraq War

ACTION ALERT * UNITED FOR PEACE AND JUSTICE

GLOBAL DAY OF PROTEST ON THE TWO-YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE IRAQ WAR

* End the War * Bring the Troops Home Now * Rebuild Our Communities *

March 19-20 marks the two-year anniversary of the U.S. bombing and invasion of Iraq. After all of the death and destruction, and with the Bush administration claiming a mandate to continue their war, there’s a new urgency and a stronger determination within the global antiwar movement to bring the troops home now.

LOCAL ACTIONS NATIONWIDE
UFPJ calls on supporters of peace and justice in every corner of the country, in communities large and small, to organize local protests against the war on Saturday, March 19. These can take many forms: vigils, rallies, marches, nonviolent civil disobedience. We especially encourage creative efforts to put the spotlight on the institutions of militarism at home by organizing actions outside military bases or military recruitment offices. List your activities on the UFPJ website calendar at www.unitedforpeace.org/events (select “March 19” under Event Type).

On the first anniversary of the war, at least 319 cities and towns across the United States organized protests. This year there is the potential to organize even more demonstrations, and to bring more people than ever out into the streets. The Bush Administration will soon ask Congress to pump as much as $100 billion more into the war; March 19 is an opportunity to call for an end to this disaster, and to demand that the billions be allocated instead for rebuilding our communities at home and paying for the damage in Iraq.

MAJOR REGIONAL PROTEST IN FAYETTEVILLE, N.C.
UFPJ is also supporting a major regional demonstration in Fayetteville, North Carolina. We hope those of you within driving distance of Fayetteville will make this action your priority. Fayetteville is home to Fort Bragg – ground zero for the 82nd Airborne Division and many of the Army’s elite units. Beyond Fort Bragg, North Carolina hosts four other of the nation’s largest military bases, making the state one of the friendliest to the military-industrial complex.

Less well-known is the fact that Fayetteville is also home to a growing base of anti-war activists and organizations. They are military folks, veterans, families of active-duty soldiers and veterans, students, workers, housewives, clergy, educators, and all are part of a vibrant, and growing, statewide network. They stand firm in the knowledge that organizing in Fayetteville is a key to bringing the troops home from Iraq.

Military Families Speak Out www.mfso.org/
Bring Them Home Now www.bringthemhomenow.org
Iraq Veterans Against the War www.ivaw.net
Veterans For Peace www.veteransforpeace.org
Quaker House, Fayetteville Peace with Justice, the North Carolina Peace and Justice Coalition www.ncpeacejustice.org
North Carolina Council of Churches www.nccouncilofchurches.org

Please do all you can to be in Fayetteville this year; by actively building and participating in this demonstration, we have the opportunity to support the efforts of Southern organizers to build a Southern network, and a Southern movement, to replace war and occupation with justice and self-determination.

BE PART OF A GLOBAL ANTIWAR MOVEMENT
In addition to the many protests already being planned in the United States, people all around the world will be taking action on March 19 as well. Responding to a call from the European Social Forum’s Assembly of Social Movements, European activists are organizing national mobilizations across Europe. Brussels will be the site of a central demonstration on the eve of a meeting of the European Council, where demonstrators will march against war, racism, and a corporate-dominated Europe. India’s national Anti-War Assembly recently committed to major protests on the second anniversary of the war. And we anticipate that the World Social Forum will join this call when it meets later this month in Sao Paolo, Brazil.

Boston Zine Fair 2005

Speak For Yourself: Boston Zine Fair 2005

March 19-20, 2005

Speak For Yourself is a weekend-long event with the aim of bringing together zinesters, artists, and other producers of independent media. The conference includes two full days of tabling and trading, a spoken word show, and potluck meals. There are also numerous hands-on workshops and discussion panels which give us the opportunity to learn new skills to use in our own creative enterprises, as well as to explore the importance of independent media in a corporate-owned world. Speak For Yourself is free and open to the public. In previous years the Boston Zine Fair has drawn hundreds of both local and national publishers, and has been a great way to build community and just enjoy each other's company. Hope to see you there!

The dates for this year's Zine Fair are March 19th & 20th, with a spoken word show taking place the evening of the 18th. All events will be taking place at the Massachusetts College of Art. Check back in the next few weeks for more info regarding the location, as well as new workshops, etc.

Finalized Workshop Schedule:

SATURDAY MARCH 19

Noon- Making a Political Zine (What's Up? Magazine)
Any new 'zine publisher can learn the tricks of the trade. What's a bit more difficult is making sure your activist publication is positive, diverse, and engaging to people outside of your immediate comfort zone. This workshop is about how to make sure your publication is read, understood, enjoyed, and respected. We will address some common initial problems with activist publications, and discuss how to put out high quality journalism that is powerful but not abrasive, emotional but not irrational, professional but not boring, inspiring but not soft-pedaling. We will also discuss the role of content and smart distribution in creating a diverse space that appeals to all progressive-minded people.

1pm- Bookbinding (Leslie Miller)
Don't be spineless! Bookbinding for beginners. Learn Japanese bookbinding techniques that are perfect for small run publications or special editions.

2pm- Screenprinting (Heather Q)
Learn to screen print using the drawing fluid/screen filler method. An easy, fairly on-toxic method of screen printing and can be done pretty inexpensively. A step up from stencilling! Photo-emulsion screen printing will be discussed (with pamphlet!) but not demonstrated. Also, some tips will be shared on cheap materials. Come with a shirt, blank patch or something fabric to print on!

3:30pm- DIY Event Organization (Ben Sisto)
In this general event-production overview, we will discuss topics such as age-restrictions, venue rental + care, city laws, sponsorship, promotion, security, and other aspects of DIY event planning. Special attention will be paid to working within the law to create longer-lasting spaces for underground art and music. This workshop will cover basics, and is recommended for those with little to no experience with event planning. Handouts will be provided. Ben Sisto runs the Honeypump Production Company and is Promotional Director for Great Scott in Allston MA.

4:30pm- Storming the Ivory Tower (Janaka Stucky)
A start-up guide to independent publishing.


SUNDAY MARCH 20

12noon- Blockprinting (Ciara)

1pm- Zine Etiquette and Tips for Beginners (Rosie Streetpixie)

2pm- Breaking Down Bars (Fanorama)
With the encroachment of technology and web zines, prisoner-created zines are one of the last bastions of true d.i.y. creativity in an increasingly bland, sterile and p.c. world. In addition, zines act as one of the only means of alternative information and non-corporate media able to crack through the concrete walls. Creating a zine while in a cage is not only an act of personal liberation, it is often one of defiance and self-transformation. People in prison need a publisher on the outside in order for their words, art and truths to see the light of day. Unfortunately, there are more prisoners that want to create zines than publishers willing to publish prisoner-created publications. Many zinesters have also been brainwashed, like most of society, to think of all prisoners as con artists, "dangerous"opportunists, rapists and serial murderers. In this workshop we'll explore the highs and lows of publishing prisoner-created zines, while exploring moreeffective ways for free-world zinesters to get their printed matter behind bars. The workshop will be facilitated by REB who publishes one of the longest running queer zines, Fanorama, and runs the Fanorama Society Prisoner Zine Distro.

3pm- Zines Can Look Good, Too! (V52 Press)
We know our zine content is good, but how often do we devote the right amount of attention to detail that a well-polished project needs? When V52 began, we made a commitment to make zines and books that would hold their own on any bookshelf, not just the bottom of the magazine rack at Newbury Comics. This workshop will discuss editorial standards, deadlines, how to edit collaboratively, book design, layout, and cover design. Most importantly (and most easily) we will talk about digital printing options that are both low-cost and so much better looking than staples at Kinkos. Not that there is anything wrong with staples at Kinkos.

4pm- DIY puppet making (Heather Q)
Materials supplied, but please bring your zine! Sock and paper bag puppet making with performances (readings from zines) by participants at the end of the workshop. We will address alternative sourcing for craft and art supplies as they apply to different cities. Get to know recycling and cheap shops in Portland, Chicago, Philly, Boston and Providence.

5pm- DIY Instrument making (Heather Q)
Materials supplied. DIY instrument making. Have a freakin' good time for once. geez! Make instruments with fellow zinesters. start a band and then fire everyone 15 minutes later and start a new super group. Alternative sourcing will be addressed during this workshop as well.

Peace Vigils all over Boston

Sojourners has issued an urgent call to action to honor the lives lost in war, and to advance the imperative for peace. Since March 19, 2003, more than 1,400 U.S. soldiers have been killed, as well as tens of thousands of Iraqis. U.S. citizens have also suffered on the domestic front, as crucial domestic programs that benefit low-income families have been threatened and the already- ballooning national deficit has swelled to compensate for the cost of war. Sojourners calls on readers to gather together in prayer and remembrance, and advocate for lasting peace and security in
the region.

Sounds of Dissent

WZBC Boston College Radio 90.3fm

Produced by John Grebe and the WZBC News Staff

Show Description:
Too seldom we hear sounds of dissent in mainstream media. While no one honestly claims to have "all things considered," even our public broadcasting institutions have come to reflect their most privileged listener's interests. As they mine the wealthiest listener demographics to sell to their corporate underwriters, they distort the news. Let's clarify the crucial stories, views, and information excluded elsewhere. How can we build participatory non-commercial educational radio? Locally and globally, people are making sounds of dissent, independent of profit and advertising driven corporate bias. Please call or write in with your program ideas.

Rachel King Book Signing

Rachel King Book Signing, “Capital Consequences”

Rachel King is the State Campaign Coordinator for the American Civil Liberties Union’s Capital Punishment Project where she works with ACLU state affiliates on their legislative campaigns to eliminate and reform death penalty laws. She has a broad number of experiences working in the criminal justice system and teaching criminal law. After graduating from Northeastern Law School in 1990, she clerked for Chief Justice Alexander Bryner of the Alaska Court of Appeals, the criminal appellate court in Alaska. From there she worked for the Alaska Public Defender Agency practicing in several areas throughout the state. In 1993 she left her job as a public defender to work full-time in a campaign to fight reinstatement of the death penalty in Alaska. The campaign was successful – Alaska still does not have a death penalty. She also served as the interim director of the Alaska Civil Liberties Union. In 1996 she left Alaska to take a teaching fellowship at Temple Law School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In 1998 she became a legislative counsel in the ACLU’s Washington National Office lobbying on criminal justice issues before Congress. She left that position in February of 2003 to work at the Capital Punishment Project.

She is the author of “Don't Kill in Our Names: Families of Murder Victims Speak Out Against the Death Penalty” and is now touring with her most recent book, “Capital Consequences.”

WSC - Ato Mundial d@s Grafiteir@s e Pixador@s Contra as Guerras

Bom pra quem não conhece, a WSC foi criada por alguns membros da SUAT (mhhob-sp), com o intuito de troca, informação, ação e organização dos grafiteiros. Como primeira ação, estamos propondo uma intervenção nos dias 19 e 20/03 em vários países que temos contatos, para que mostremos nossa posição contra o imperialismo, seja ele qual for. Pois nessa data fazem dois anos de ocupação estadunidense no Iraque.
A idéia é que cada um se manifeste localmente, sua rua, bairro, cidade e registre isso com fotografias para nos enviar. Com esse material montaremos uma página em memória desse bombardeio de atitude de tod@s @s grafiteir@s, pixador@s, e outr@s maloqueir@s. Assim daremos visibilidade as nossas reivindicações.

Peço que, na medida do possível, divulguem ao máximo, com colagens, emails, xerox... o que estiver ao alcance. Estou criando a página de referência do ato em três líguas diferntes (port/espanhol/ing) para que tenha uma maior divulgação.

O link é: atowsc.250Free.com No site tem opções em três linguas, baixem os cartazes em inglês e espanhol e enviem para os contatos dos gringos... assim o ato vai ficar mais montro ainda.


Se alguém quiser a imagem em alta resolução me avise que eu passo por email, ou façam o downlod no site, tem um arquivo em PDF que tá com resolução alta..


Bom é isso ae...

No a l'ocupació de l'Iraq i Palestina MANIFESTACIÓ!

El 19 de març de 2005 marca el segon aniversari de l’inici de la invasió de l’Iraq. Van dir que buscaven armes de destrucció massiva. Van dir que portarien la llibertat i la democràcia al poble iraquià.
Ara tothom pot veure que era mentida.
Les armes no existien. Les condicions de vida de la gent són pitjors que mai, i no es pot parlar de democràcia a un pais sota ocupació militar, i sotmès a un “estat de setge”, a un país on les tropes d’EUA acaben de destrossar la ciutat de Fal-luja, amb un enorme cost en vides humanes.
En quant a Palestina, sembla que Bush ni l’inclou entre els països que es mereixen la llibertat. EUA segueix finançant i armant a l’Estat d’Israel, que assassina diàriament a homes, dones i nens palestins.
Deien que les eleccions palestines portarien la pau, però és obvi que l’obstacle a una solució no són els palestins, sinó els dirigents israelians de la mena del genocida Sharon. Mentre, fins i tot la Unió Europea privilegia a Israel en les seves relacions comercials.
Per tots aquestes motius, el 19-M hem de tornar al carrer, contra les guerres i les ocupacions, i per la justícia.
Alguns diran que les manifestacions no serveixen.
Al primer trimestre de 2003-sobretot, a la data històrica del 15 de febrer- ens vam manifestar, arreu del món, més de 30 milions de persones. I és cert que Bush, Blair i la resta van seguir endavant amb la invasió.
Però, com ens va comunicar una activista de Bagdad: “Bush diu que el món està amb ell. Vosaltres ens heu mostrat, al poble de l’Iraq, que no esteu per la guerra. Ens doneu ànims per resistir a l’ocupació”.
El New York Times va comentar que el 15-F va suposar la irrupció de la segona superpotència del món: l’opinió pública, expressada al carrer.
Una gran mobilització el 19-M-2005 tornarà a mostrar al poble iraquià, al poble palestí, i a tants altres, que no estan sols davant les agressions militars i les ocupacions.
Hi haurà manifestacions a tot el planeta, des d’Estats Units-on el moviment d’oposició a Bush no es rendeix-fins a l’Est d’Àsia- on veuen que moltes víctimes del Tsunami segueixin esperant ajuda, mentre es dediquen enormes quantitas de recursos a la guerra-.
El 19 de març, sortim massivament al carrer, contra la guerra, contra les ocupacions, i per un món mès just i en pau.
Fem escoltar la nostra veu.

Marcha anticarcelaria a “La Modelo” en memoria a Xosé Tarrío y Paco Ortiz

Marcha anticarcelaria a “La Modelo” en memoria a Xosé Tarrío y Paco Ortiz. Sábado 19 de Marzo, 20:00 Plaça de Sants.

La cárcel nace de la necesidad del Gobierno, del Estado, de apoderarse del derecho exclusivo a castigar, o sea, del uso en exclusiva de la violencia sobre las personas libres; la utilidad funcional de este hecho es la necesidad de hacer valer sus leyes por medio del terror y la tortura, a fin de destruir a los enemigos del sistema vigente y a aquellas personas insumisas a sus códigos y leyes.
Xosé Tarrío


Desde la aparición del espectáculo democrático en el estado español muchxs han sido ya lxs asesinadxs en su nombre dentro y fuera de los muros, muchxs lxs torturadxs, y muchxs otrxs lxs que día tras día vemos como nos roban nuestras vidas para traficar con ellas, mientras la conciencia burguesa concede el monopolio de la violencia al estado terrorista... Como bien expresa Gabriel Pombo en su carta “A Xosé en recuerdo”, “la libertad no estaba ni a un lado ni al otro del muro”. Mientras exista unx solx presx, nadie será libre. La cárcel forma parte del sistema mercantil capitalista como fuente de mano de obra extremadamente barata, a la vez que asegura el correcto funcionamiento de La Megamáquina, reprimiendo aquellas personas que por su actitud, pensamiento y acción, resultan peligrosas para el estrecho marco vigente, poniendo freno así a la lucha social y actuando como válvula de escape del sistema (introvertida en si misma) que retarda a toda costa su autodestrucción para así apretar aún más la tuerca. Este mismo sistema se sirve de cabezas de turco para justificar un espectáculo mediático de crimen-castigo, pero cuyas consecuencias no son en absoluto abstractas. Así lo sufrieron los compañeros Xosé Tarrío y Paco Ortiz entre muchxs otrxs , asesinados en un acto de terrorismo de estado, pues la prisión en sí es una forma brutal de terrorismo, y más cuando se aplican regímenes de aislamiento como el FIES, y cuando se tortura y se practican métodos de guerra sucia hasta provocar la muerte de una persona. Por ello queremos lanzar una convocatoria para el día 19 de Marzo, cuando tendrá lugar una marcha al centro de exterminio "La Modelo", ubicada dentro de un conjunto de marchas coordinadas en varios puntos del estado. Os esperamos el sábado 19 a las 20:00 para llevar a la calle la denuncia del sistema carcelario y la memoria de estos compañeros.

Protest on 2nd Anniv of Iraq War

GLOBAL DAY OF PROTEST ON THE TWO-YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE IRAQ WAR

* End the War * Bring the Troops Home Now * Rebuild Our Communities *

March 19-20 marks the two-year anniversary of the U.S. bombing and invasion of Iraq. After all of the death and destruction, and with the Bush administration claiming a mandate to continue their war, there’s a new urgency and a stronger determination within the global antiwar movement to bring the troops home now.

LOCAL ACTIONS NATIONWIDE
UFPJ calls on supporters of peace and justice in every corner of the country, in communities large and small, to organize local protests against the war on Saturday, March 19. These can take many forms: vigils, rallies, marches, nonviolent civil disobedience. We especially encourage creative efforts to put the spotlight on the institutions of militarism at home by organizing actions outside military bases or military recruitment offices. List your activities on the UFPJ website calendar at www.unitedforpeace.org/events (select “March 19” under Event Type).

On the first anniversary of the war, at least 319 cities and towns across the United States organized protests. This year there is the potential to organize even more demonstrations, and to bring more people than ever out into the streets. The Bush Administration will soon ask Congress to pump as much as $100 billion more into the war; March 19 is an opportunity to call for an end to this disaster, and to demand that the billions be allocated instead for rebuilding our communities at home and paying for the damage in Iraq.

MAJOR REGIONAL PROTEST IN FAYETTEVILLE, N.C.
UFPJ is also supporting a major regional demonstration in Fayetteville, North Carolina. We hope those of you within driving distance of Fayetteville will make this action your priority. Fayetteville is home to Fort Bragg – ground zero for the 82nd Airborne Division and many of the Army’s elite units. Beyond Fort Bragg, North Carolina hosts four other of the nation’s largest military bases, making the state one of the friendliest to the military-industrial complex.

Less well-known is the fact that Fayetteville is also home to a growing base of anti-war activists and organizations. They are military folks, veterans, families of active-duty soldiers and veterans, students, workers, housewives, clergy, educators, and all are part of a vibrant, and growing, statewide network. They stand firm in the knowledge that organizing in Fayetteville is a key to bringing the troops home from Iraq.

Please do all you can to be in Fayetteville this year; by actively building and participating in this demonstration, we have the opportunity to support the efforts of Southern organizers to build a Southern network, and a Southern movement, to replace war and occupation with justice and self-determination.

BE PART OF A GLOBAL ANTIWAR MOVEMENT
In addition to the many protests already being planned in the United States, people all around the world will be taking action on March 19 as well. Responding to a call from the European Social Forum’s Assembly of Social Movements, European activists are organizing national mobilizations across Europe. Brussels will be the site of a central demonstration on the eve of a meeting of the European Council, where demonstrators will march against war, racism, and a corporate-dominated Europe. India’s national Anti-War Assembly recently committed to major protests on the second anniversary of the war. And we anticipate that the World Social Forum will join this call when it meets later this month in Sao Paolo, Brazil.

Santa Barbara, CA., March 19, 2005 - On the second anniversary of the Bush Administration's criminal invasion of Iraq, the worldwide antiwar movement has called for massive global demonstrations on March 19th - the International Day of Protest. In Santa Barbara, we will commemorate this day of protest with a March & Rally beginning at De La Guerra Plaza at 11:30am. We invite groups & individuals to contribute Statements of Conscience representing their stance on this important day.

Over 100,000 Iraqis and more than 1,500 U.S. soldiers have already died in this war for conquest and many more victims will soon follow. Military experts agree that if we stay the course Bush has set us on, this war will drag on for at least another 5 years.

Converge
On March 19th, the second anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Iraq we call on the good people of Santa Barbara to create large banners and signs for your group; organize a non-violent political street-theater action, bring friends, drums, noisemakers, megaphones, chants, and loud voices as we join together with the people of the world to refuse and resist the Bush Administration and everything they stand for.

Statements of Conscience
We call on Santa Barbara organizations & individuals to put forth a Statement of Conscience representing their stance on the Iraq war and the Bush Administration. Interested parties may email their statements to freemyplanet-AT-verizon.net

The People's Coalition has organized The Annual People's March for Social and Economic Justice in Santa Barbara since 2003.

Nashville, TN:

On Saturday, March 19, upwards of 2 million people will take to the streets around the world to protest the two anniversary of the invasion of Iraq. People in more than 60 countries throughout the world - from Japan to South Korea to Spain to Australia to South Africa - will for an end to the occupation, which they believe is only increasing violence and insecurity in Iraq.

Locally, Nashville Peace Coalition will host the Think Peace! Bring the Troops Home Now! Rally to raise consciousness about the occupation of Iraq and demand that President Bush begin to take responsibility for ending what is a grave humanitarian crisis.

“The unprovoked war against Iraq was a terrible tragedy for the Iraqi people, thousands of whom were killed during the last year, and for the close to 1500 U.S. soldiers who also lost their lives and thousands of others who've been injured,” said Anna Thompson of the Nashville Peace Coalition. “It’s time to hold our government accountable for the chaos it's created in Iraq - and for the fact that the Bush administration lied about the Iraqi threat to convince the American public of the need for war.”

For more than two years, the United States has occupied Iraq resulting in the deaths of more than 1,500 American Soldiers and over 100,000 Iraqis and has cost the taxpayers over $300 billion dollars. Popular sentiment is growing for a demand to Bring the Troops Home Now! and Bring Them Home Alive!

Despite the horrific nature of this war and the admission by the Bush Administration that the pretext for this war was a lie, the United States continues to occupy Iraq with over 140,000 troops. Impunity and corruption has permeated the governance of this occupation, and to continue committing these acts is immoral.

The rally is organized by the Nashville Peace Coalition and will include a street demonstration, peace march, and music and speakers including Tim Wise, Nashville native and motivational speaker. Wise speaks about the connection between war abroad and the war at home, highlighting the connections between imperialism and agression against the poor and disenfranchised abroad and the poor and disenfranchised at home. Wise also offers a message of hope and opportunity for peace.

“The great initiative in this war is ours; the initiative to stop it must be ours.” Dr. Martin Luther King
