NoG8 Report Back
Posted August 1, 2008 by jmacphee in Events
For those in NYC, come by this report back on the recent organizing and activism in Japan against the G8:
2008 NoG8! Report Back
Monday August 4, 7:30-9:30 pm
at The Change You Want To See Gallery
84 Havemeyer Street, storefront
at Metropolitan Ave, Brooklyn 11211
L to Bedford, J/M/Z to Marcy, G to Lorimer
Did you go to this year's G-8 mobilization in Japan or do you want to know more about what went on? Come to an event this Monday, August 4th to hear, see, and share information.
Participants include:
Jim Fleming (Autonomedia)
Abraham Greenhouse (Palestine Freedom Project)
Brandon Jourdan (Filmmaker and Independent Journalist)
Diane Krauthamer (IWW and Indymedia)
and you!
Key questions framing the discussion will be:
- How to navigate new forms of authoritarian repression in global justice movements
- The benefit or disadvantage of summit hopping for non-locals in mass mobilizations
- How lessons learned at this year and preceding mass mobilizations can help us in upcoming demonstrations (e.g., Olympics, RNC/DNC, future G-8s, local campaigns, etc.)
- Pray tell, the Japanese had such kick-ass graphics and how can we reform the design aesthetic of the Left
+ Whatever questions you want to voice!
