Thursday, March 13th, 8pm @ Brecht Forum

Working through non-profits, autonomous collectives, small socialist or
anarchist organizations, today's generation of anti-capitalist organizers
is bumping up against the limits of existing left forms--just as the 1960s
generation did under different conditions 40 years ago. Learning from past
successes and failures, can we identify fruitful approaches for making a
leap toward a more coherent radical movement in the next two-to-five
years?

2008 NYC Anarchist Film Festival

Where:
1-5pm @ The Bowery Poetry Club (308 Bowery)

6pm-midnight @ The Yippie Museum (9 Bleeker St.)

Last April, the first ever New York Anarchist Film Festival was an overflowing success. Participants included filmmakers and viewers from around the country, Europe and Latin America. Despite being a grassroots, unfunded, do-it-yourself, stuck together with duct tape kind of effort, we presented a forum to share and experience incredibly artistic, creative and socially and politically diverse media which exposed viewers to all kinds of issues, perspectives and realities. It was an exciting event that brought many different kinds of people.
