On Saturday, June 7th people from all over North America will gather together on a single day to discuss the threat against the radical environmental movement, the Green Scare, and how we can prevent impending ecological collapse.

TransUS- Christoph Fiedler and Elin Sandström Lundh, a pair of Swedish writers will present their findingsfrom their travels across the US and Canada interviewing people about the state of queer feminist activism in 2008. The interviews will be compiled into a book--part photo-essay, part interviews, part original texts by queer activists. TransUS says, "Queer-feminist activism constitutes an enormous positive power in its constant evolvement and questioning of both queer-feminist theory and of society at large." Throughout 2008, they have been travelling across the US and Canada, interviewing people involved in queer-feminist actions such as organizing festivals, starting bands, printing fanzines, doing art, arranging demonstrations or more day-to-day activism. | ||

1968: 40 Years Later The Weather Underground (2002, 92 min.) is an Oscar Nominated documentary that follows the rise and fall of the Weather Underground - a group of several hundred young women and men who tried to violently overthrow the American government during the late 1960s and 70s. Outraged by the Vietnam War and racism in America, the Weathermen battled police in the streets, bombed the US Capitol and two dozen other buildings, and broke Timothy Leary out of prison. For almost a decade, they lived underground and evaded one of the largest FBI manhunts in US history. In this film, former members of the Weather Underground speak candidly about their own thoughts and experiencesmany for the first time ever. What drove the group to embrace violence? How did violence affect their cause? How did it change them? And how do they feel about their actions thirty years later? Tuesday, June 24th | ||

Grateful Undead Join the filmmakers of this film as they cart it around on their bikes from venue to venue across Austin! Set in the grunge-soaked heyday of the early 90's, "The Grateful Undead" is a shocking surrealistic spectacle about what happens when social waste turns toxic! Eno the Zero and Dr. Zog are two wastoids cut adrift in the Summer of '69. Disenchantment reigns supreme as they trudge through the junk food wasteland of mini-marts and parking lots. Their dense, hallucinatory haze draws the attention of flower-child wannabes who yearn for love and freedom in an age of apathy and rage. Take a stomach-turning psychedelic journey to a world of baby boomer nostalgia, tie-dyed in blood! | ||
