Our dreams will never fit into their ballot boxes! Neither docile street marches nor electoral campaigns are effective means of opposing war and oppression. The RNC presents a tremendous opportunity for anarchists and other radicals to put our politics into action! ----

Come to network, learn the lay of the land, and get the lowdown on the plans and logistics already in place to crash the convention this summer in Minneapolis!

* The RNC Welcoming Committee is an anarchist / anti-authoritarian organizing body preparing for the 2008 Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minnesota. http://www.rncwelcomingcommittee.org/

The EZLN and The Other Campaign/La Otra Campaña in the USA

Juan Haro of the Movement for Justice in the Barrio will discuss the Zapatista's Other Campaign both in Mexico and the USA. He will focus on how it has influenced the work that the MJB does around anti-gentrification organizing in New York City.

The Movement for Justice in El Barrio was founded by immigrants and low-income people of color. For the past three years, this 400-member strong tenant rights organization has successfully staved off the gentrification of Spanish Harlem. Movement for Justice in El Barrio will be coming to Austin to share their successes and discuss their organizing strategies.
