Tell Cuomo and DiNapoli to Stand Up to Williams Pipeline
Wednesday, Sept. 5 from 8:30 AM to 9:30 AM
811 7th Ave. at W. 53rd
https://facebook.com/events/1939136666106360/
The CEO of Williams Pipelines, a fortune 500 fracked gas pipeline corporation, is speaking at a Barclay’s Bank conference in Midtown. Williams is pushing a massive new fracked gas pipeline from New Jersey to New York that will fuel the climate crisis and pollute our communities. Williams also just handed Comptroller DiNapoli’s former CIO a super-lucrative $300k/year Board of Directors appointment after she opposed divesting the state pension fund’s from the over $10 billion sunk into fossil fuel companies.

Join us to tell Governor Cuomo and Comptroller DiNapoli to stand with the people and up to Williams, not inflate the fracked gas pipeline corporation’s massive profits while it causes climate destruction and pollution.

We’ll demand Cuomo, whose campaign manager was a lobbyist for Williams, stop the proposed Williams pipeline and move NY rapidly to 100% renewable energy.

We’ll urge DiNapoli to divest the nearly $200 billion state pension funds from climate destruction by ending financing of fossil fuel corporations like Williams, into which DiNapoli has poured $160 million of state pension fund money.

Williams CEO Alan Armstrong gets paid over $9 million per year while he destroys the climate.

Join us in front of the Sheraton (811 7th ave at 53rd) where the Barclays Bank conference will be held at 8:30 am for a protest. Bring signs! We’ll send them a message to protect New Yorkers, not a pipeline corporation and its CEO!

At a time when we need protest more than ever, our First Amendments rights are under attack.For decades, the powerful have attempted to silence their critics by filing meritless lawsuits intended to intimidate public watchdogs and advocacy groups. This repressive tactic — called “Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation” (SLAPPs) — is an abuse of the court system and a violation of the First Amendment rights of those who speak truth to power.Free speech, freedom of assembly, and peaceful dissent are fundamental pillars of democracy. Let’s stand together as one to expose courtroom bullying, and protect the right to boldly speak the truth. Will you join us?On September 5, individuals and advocacy groups threatened by SLAPPs will rally against corporate bullies like the Kasowitz Benson Torres law firm and stand up for our First Amendment rights. This New York-based firm has been hired by logging giants and oil pipeline companies to sue advocacy organizations like Greenpeace — as well as dozens of individual climate activists.***The first 10 people arrive will get a free Protect the Protest T-shirt!***Courts are for justice, not for bullying. A growing number of corporations and individuals (including President Trump) are trying to silence the free speech of those who work in the public interest and speak truth to power. They are filing shameless lawsuits they know they can’t win but which they hope will intimidate advocates and journalists into silence. Democracy depends on the ability to hold the powerful accountable.Organizations across different sectors, including the ACLU, Greenpeace, and others, will launch the Protect the Protest task force taking aim at corporations and people in positions of power who use SLAPPs to try to limit free speech and silence critics.Rally speakers include activists from Greenpeace, the Center for Constitutional Rights, the International Corporate Accountability Roundtable, the ACLU and more!Great Protect the Protest swag will be available to early comers to the rally - join us as we stand up and speak out!

Join us in packing the court to support Anna Chambers. We stand with her and victims of police violence in demanding justice! Show up for the two officers' next pre-trial date on  {snip}

Please be prepared to go through security to enter the courthouse (Kings County Supreme Court: 320 Jay Street, Brooklyn). Please be prepared to take direction from Anna, her family, and/or her legal team in order to best support her throughout this trial.

[CW: rape mention]

Anna Chambers, a teenager from Coney Island, was hanging out with her friends in October of last year when she was abducted, handcuffed, and raped in an unmarked vehicle by NYPD officers Martins and Hall. When she was in the hospital recovering, the NYPD sent 9 officers to harass and intimidate her into silence. Anna has refused to be silent! Now she's fighting back in court.

The two cops resigned from the NYPD, have been indicted on 50 counts including rape, and were let out on bail by a legal system that locks up our low-income, homeless, "emotionally disturbed," Black, brown, and immigrant neighbors for minor infractions every day.

Meanwhile, police continue to harass and assault activists at protests. Their press team continues to attempt to shame and discredit Anna in the press. The city continues to employ and promote the cops who killed Eric Garner, Amadou Diallo, and countless other victims of police brutality.

The Socialist Feminist working group of NYC-DSA is calling on all comrades to stand with Anna Chambers against violent police officers.

Thursday, Sept. 6, 5:30 pm, starting at Battery Park  
nr. #4, 5, 1, R, W, J stops, Broadway bus & probably MTA interborough express buses;
Rising temperatures, devastating forest fires, brewing deadly hurricanes are horrifying enough, and in the context of eroding human rights and Trump/Pence Regime fascism, we must take action. The national Peoples Climate Movement - the coalition that has organized huge climate marches over the last 4 years - is calling for local actions just before the Global Climate Action Summit convening in San Francisco on Sept. 12-14 . Our NYC action will kick off the wave of national and international protests. 
 

from Catherine Skopic...

Greetings, Everyone.
Hope your summer has been fine and that you can get in a little more fun before it's over!

Thursday, September 6th, 5:30 - Battery Park will be the rally for Climate, Jobs, Justice.
We are adding the "Nuclear-Free, Carbon-Free" contingent, looking to educate people about Tier 3 and the need to stop the bail-out of the 4 nuclear power plants costing us
ratepayers $7.6 billion dollars - and this is money that is NOT going toward renewables.
Article #78 - a group of 5 organizations has a court case to stop this atrocious Tier 3.
We would like to let people know about this and give them - us - our support. We need as many of you as possible to participate. I have plenty of banners to be carried; and I'm making some new ones specifically about the bail-out issue, and you can make signs and
banners of your own to carry. There will be a program in the park & then a short march.

PLEASE call me or Carl to let us know that you will be participating. Each one of you is very important to literally carry the banner for a fossil and nuclear-free world!
Catherine: (212) 227-7847. Carl: (347) 920-1606

Thank you. Respectfully and in PEACE, Catherine

With the mass call for the abolishment of ICE and work done by activists protesting the racist abuse by police, how does this moment open the door for a broader conservation around abolishing the police?

A Conversation on Barack Obama 10 Years Later, Donald Trump’s Presidency, and the Future of America.   Featuring KEVIN POWELL Activist, public speaker, and author of 13 books, including his latest My Mother. Barack Obama. Donald Trump. And the Last Stand of the Angry White Man. (Atria Books; On-Sale September 4th)

and

TIM WISE Anti-racism educator and author of 7 books on race, including White Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged Son (Soft Skull Press)

As the world reflects on the 10th Anniversary of Barack Obama’s historical election, America still lives in a time of confusion because of a nation that’s divided like never before and continues to become more multicultural than ever. Join writer, public speaker, and activist Kevin Powell as he addresses urgent conversations like race, sexual violence, poverty, and identity with keenness and compassion in MY MOTHER. BARACK OBAMA. DONALD TRUMP. AND THE LAST STAND OF THE ANGRY WHITE MAN (Atria Books; Hardcover; On Sale September 4, 2018; 978-1-5011-9880-9).

Praise for My Mother. Barack Obama. Donald Trump. And the Last Stand of the Angry White Man:

“Kevin Powell’s writing never fails to be both profoundly insightful and brilliantly inciting. His words are unassuming daggers, piercing the skin of racism in America, gender inequality, misogyny, and the socio-political impact of our greatest icons while expertly avoiding clichés and pretension. His work provides a compassionate examination of our contemporary ethos, and inspires us to move beyond apathy into full social accountability.” —DOMINIQUE MORISSEAU, Obie Award-winning playwright

“Hip-hop has been the most influential cultural force of the last fifty years and no writer has understood its power quite like Kevin Powell. It's not just music. It's a lens to understand the world and Kevin Powell wields it to further our understanding of racism, manhood, and our troubled political times. Make no mistake about it: whether writing about Harvey Weinstein, his mother, or American football, this book is hip-hop in the best sense of the phrase, in that it challenges the reader to step outside of themselves. Powell takes us to a place beyond the beats. It's a place most fear to tread, but if we hope to salvage this country, it's a place we all need to understand." —DAVE ZIRIN, writer and editor for The Nation

"Kevin Powell thoughtfully weaves together the connective tissue between gender, race, sexuality, pop culture, and sports through a series of raw, incredibly personal essays. He masterfully uses his own life experiences to force us to take an uncomfortable look at how we’ve been conditioned to adopt, accept, and extend the unfortunate American traditions of hate and violence.” —JEMELE HILL, ESPN anchor, commentator, writer

Ravi's Report Date Moved to September 7

-t.]

Ravi's report date with ICE has been rescheduled from Friday, July 27, 2018 to Friday, September 7, 2018.  This change is the result of certain legal developments in Ravi's cases in New York and New Jersey. (See short legal update below.) 

Legal Updates
Ravi's stay of removal remains in effect.
Here's what's happening in his legal cases.

    Ravi's case in the District of New Jersey will continue to be briefed through the middle of August. The stay of removal in the District of New Jersey will exist until there is a decision in the case.

    On July 19, 2018, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals issued a temporary stay of removal in Ravi and plaintiff organizations' First Amendment case. The Court scheduled
oral argument for Tuesday, August 14, 2018 on whether it should grant a stay of removal pending appeal of the District Court's partial denial of a preliminary injunction in the First Amendment case. The preliminary injunction asked the District Court to restrain ICE from removing Ravi unless it could prove that it was not retaliating or otherwise discriminating against him because of his outspokenness against our unjust immigration system.

Join Nicole R. Fleetwood for a discussion about Aperture's "Prison Nation" magazine at Revolution Books.

At a moment when 2.2 million people are incarcerated in the US, 3.8 million people are on probation, and 870,000 former prisoners are on parole, how can images tell the story of mass incarceration when the imprisoned don’t have control over their own representation? How can photographs visualize a reality that disproportionately affects people of color, and, for many, remains outside of view? Aperture magazine’s spring issue, “Prison Nation,” addresses the unique role photography plays in creating a visual record of this national crisis.

Revolution Books is a non-profit/all-volunteer bookstore that is the political, intellectual, and cultural center for a movement for an actual revolution. There is a $5-$10 donation for this program.

Nicole R. Fleetwood is Associate Professor in the Department of American Studies at Rutgers University, New Brunswick. She is currently completing a book on art and mass incarceration. Her two previous books are Troubling Vision: Performance, Visuality, and Blackness(2011) and On Racial Icons: Blackness and the Public Imagination (2015). Fleetwood is the recipient of awards and fellowships from NYPL’s Cullman Center for Scholars and Writers, American Council of Learned Societies, Whiting Foundation, Schomburg Center for Scholars-in-Residence, Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, and National Endowment for the Arts.

Consent on Campus: A Manifesto by NYC sex and campus culture expert
Donna Freitas is based off of 10 years of research and discussions with college students. In the book, Freitas advocates that consent and consent culture should be imbedded within the classroom, and that campuses need to be transformed into places where consent is genuinely valued. She offers a blueprint for how universities can teach more effectively about consent and how to transform the discussion of consent within our society.

 . Screening of What Farocki Taught and Conversation with Filmmaker Jill GodmilowSaturday, Sept. 8, 7:00pm at Interference Archive

Interference is thrilled to host acclaimed filmmaker Jill Godmilow for a screening of her 1998 short What Farocki Taught, followed by an open discussion about agitprop film and its evolution throughout her career. This will be a treat for anyone who creates or consumes political media. Her feature film Far from Poland will also be screened at Interference Archive on Tuesday, September 11.
What Farocki Taught is a remake of German political filmmaker Harun Farocki’s astute 1969 agitprop film Inextinguishable Fire. Produced in Germany at the height of the Vietnam War, Farocki attempted to make the incomprehensible visible: the physical properties of Napalm B, designed to burn at 3,000 degrees F and stick to human skin. The film demonstrates the systematic impossibility of resistance to its production by Dow Chemical Corp employees and the inevitability of its use by the U.S. in Vietnam. Because Farocki’s Inextinguishable Fire was never distributed in the U.S. and remains mostly unavailable to American audiences, Godmilow’s What Farocki Taught is a kind of film re-distribution, to see if the radical potential of the documentary project can be revived.

In 1980, American filmmaker Jill Godmilow was coincidentally in Poland when a shipyard strike led to a social movement around the first independent labor union in a Soviet-bloc country. But when Godmilow tried to return to Poland to film, her visa entry was denied. In Far From Poland, she sets out to literally reinvent the documentary form by scrutinizing her original intention to make agitprop. The resulting film depicts the workers movement against the “workers state” and points to futures outside the absurd duality of the Cold War. Read more online.

Stop by to visit our current exhibition:
Agitate! Educate! Organize!  Agit Prop in the 21st Century
Exhibition Dates: Jun. 12 -- Sept. 30, 2018
Our daily lives are saturated with information; we consume supposedly “neutral” media that implicitly supports existing power structures, yet we simultaneously fear “fake news” without critically analyzing the truths and biases that coexist in every message we see or hear. The reality is that all media has an agenda: for hundreds of years, people have used art, culture, graphics, performance, and design as central elements of social and political organizing across all realms of the political spectrum, to spread information and reimagine reality. This exhibition reflects historic and current uses of agitprop, or agitational propaganda, at the intersection of design and political organizing.
“Propaganda,” from the same root as “propagate,” refers to information that is shared in support of a cause. In modern times, the word propaganda has been weighted with negative connotations; we aim to reclaim the word and highlight the radical potential of propaganda to instigate change. With the Arab Spring, Occupy, Gezi Park, Black Lives Matter, #NoDAPL, and now the resistance to Donald Trump, we’ve seen a new explosion of agitprop. People of all stripes have come out into the streets, placards and banners in hand, wearing T-shirts and buttons, passing out flyers and stickers to protest social injustice. This boost of political ephemera hasn’t been created in a vacuum—since the advent of the printing press and movable type, political slogans and graphics have been part of our daily existence. Politicized communication is the constant accompaniment to people organizing to improve the lives of their families, communities, and co-workers.
Because so much attention is focused on organizing and activism, now is the perfect time to unearth and unpack the history of agitprop. Where does it come from? Who have been its major practitioners? How have the aesthetics and content evolved over time? And, how can we use it to change the world?

A Brooklyn Book Festival "Bookend Event" at Revolution Books in Harlem:Evening with Natalie Hopkinson and her new book, "A Mouth Is Always Muzzled: Six Dissidents, Five Continents, and the Art of Resistence"

This unusual new book draws on the work of 6 artists, writers and activists, and weaves in a little-known history of Guyana, the former British Caribbean sugar colony built on the backs of enslaved Africans, indentured East Indians, and indigenous Amerindians.

The book includes chapters on writers John Berger and Walter Rodney, artists Kara Walker and Berniece Persaud, poets Martin Cartier and Ruel Johnson. Hopkinson explores the work and lives of these artists and writers who challenge the old order in a world strangled by centuries of imperialist exploitation.

Natalie Hopkinson is a former staff writer, editor, and culture critic at the Washington Post and The Root. She is currently an assistant professor in Howard University.

The hyper concentration of wealth in the hands of a financial elite has come to dominate politics and shape policy in a manner that has eroded democratic governance at the federal, state, and the municipal levels. Can democracy be saved from the grips of capitalism? What factors most threaten meaningful civic engagement and what changes are needed to bolster our democracy and create a more equitable society?

Speakers Include:

    J. Phillip Thompson, NYC Deputy Mayor for Strategic Policy Initiatives, including the Mayor’s strategy to encourage greater voter participation and improve the way the city carries out elections, DemocracyNYC; and author of Double Trouble: Black Mayors, Black Communities and the Struggle for Deep Democracy.
    Maurice Weeks, Co-Executive Director of Action Center on Race & the Economy (ACRE)
    Kim Phillips Fein, Associate Professor, NYU Gallatin School, and author of Invisible Hands: The Businessmen's Crusade Against the New Deal and Fear City: The New York City Fiscal Crisis and the Rise of the Age of Austerity

Loisaida Center Inc. is pleased to present Documents of Resistance: Our Time, a participatory exhibition and residency of new work by Antonio Serna.

How do we give contours to an art history that remains unwritten, scattered across archives, and siloed in scholarship? How can we begin to reconnect the struggle for civil rights across all artists of color and their fight for inclusion in our cultural institutions? How can we being to reflect on the complexity of artists of color and their unique experience, political actions, and art production as part of the art history in American? In the exhibition, Documents of Resistance: Our Time, Mexican-American artist, Antonio Serna is hoping to take us down a visual path to consider these and many other questions in regards to the important but often overlook contributions of artist of color.

Central to the exhibition will be a series timeline collages of art and activism from each decade, from 1960s up to our current decade. In combining the histories of artists of color, visitors will be able to visually locate overlapping shared concerns and experiences of artists of color: from the Chicano Movement to the Black Power Movement, and from the Labor Movement to the Feminist, Third World Movement, and beyond. Leading up to and during the exhibition, Antonio Serna is asking the public to send in their memories of this resistance: people, places, or events relevant in order to continue to expand this histories. Serna’s interest is not just a reflection of the past hopes to inspire and empower a new generation of people of color to join the struggle in becoming the next generation of artists, activists, curators, historians, archivist, and museum workers, to help end discrimination in our cultural institutions.
Goals:

My current project ‘Documents of Resistance,’ is an ongoing art project that draws inspiration from the history of art and activism by artists of color from 1960-present. My goal is to develop several specific in depth projects under this expansive umbrella. Specifically, for my residency at The Loisaida Center, I will be focusing on ‘Our Time,’ a multimedia installation that chronicles the connections and relationships between people, places, and events that influenced artists of color. Central to ‘Our Time’ is a series of 4 visual timeline-collages that contextualize this unique history. The timelines include historic images of protests against racism in museums in New York and collective activities in places such as Watts and East Los Angeles, among other political activities. By giving visual form to this history, we can gain an overview of overlapping concerns, cross-cultural themes, and socio-political forces that affected the studio production and protests organizing of artists of color. Over the span of my residency at The Loisaida Center visitors, special guests, and the public will be ask to comment and contribute to the project.

During the research and development phase of the residency, the artist will conduct a Call for Public Participation, to participate please fill out this form.
Outcome, exhibition:

Documents of Resistance: Our Time

Call for Public Participation:

2001 / 52min / DCP
DIRECTOR: RAOUL PECK
Before his watershed I Am Not Your Negro, Peck produced this incisive, intellectually rigorous work, which contrasts an exhaustive outline of the mercenary operations of the capitalist system with scenes from the filmmaker’s native Haiti, a close-up of the “have-nots” who suffer while the “haves” grow fat. “An elegant montage-cum-lecture applying Marxist economic theory to the forces of globalization.”—J. Hoberman

Screening in the series Icarus Films at 40.
ICARUS FILMS AT 40 at the Metrograph (Sept. 14-30). Since 1978, Icarus has offered a haven for nonfiction films that are at once socially conscious and supremely artful. With around 50 titles, this retrospective spans sensibilities and continents. From the former Soviet bloc comes the travelogue “From the East” (screening on Friday and Saturday), one of many Chantal Akerman documentaries in the series. South America provides the backdrop for Patricio Guzman’s “The Battle of Chile” (on Saturday), a chronicle of Salvador Allende’s leadership and death during the coup that overthrew his government. And Wang Bing’s “Bitter Money” (on Sunday) captures a mass migration prompted by a boom in clothing manufacturing in China.

AN EVENING FOR VICTOR JARA
Victor Jara was a Chilean singer-songwriter, poet, theater director, and political activist who was tortured and killed during the coup that brought dictator Augusto Pinochet to power in September 1973. On the 45th anniversary of his murder, we will celebrate Victor Jara's life and music with songs performed by Magpie, Colleen Kattau, and Barry Kornhauser, as well as tributes penned by several Chilean activists and read by producer Susie Erenrich.
"Deja La Vida Volar" (Let Love Fly)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RK0fLaxOBHI

Magpie: Terry Leonino & Greg Artzner, now celebrating forty-five years together, bring their unique sound and versatility to traditional songs, vintage blues, swing, country, folk classics, and stirring originals. With powerful voices and harmonies and excellent arrangements on guitars, mandolin, harmonica, dulcimer, and concertina, their sound is much bigger than just two people.
http://www.magpiemusic.com

Colleen Kattau combines the melodic and vocal gifts of artists like Joni Mitchell with the fearless lyrical punch of the best topical songwriters. She weaves Latin American influences into her songs for a unique sound. She was a winner in the 2016 Great Labor Arts Exchange songwriting contest, and her latest album, So Much Going On, was a 2015 Sammy nominee.
http://colleenkattau.com/

Barry Kornhauser was born in the Midwest of the Bronx and presently lives in Brooklyn. He is a composer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist (cello, guitar, bass, mandola) in a wide variety of musical contexts. Barry has worked with many South American artists, including Suni Paz, Bernardo Palombo, Juan Lazarro Mendolas, Frescura Antigua, Cutumay Camones, Luis Diaz, Sonido Costeno, Lucia Pulido, Rebecca Salazaar, Tomas Rodriguez, Mauricio Najt, and Misa Campesina.

Susie Erenrich is a social movement historian. She uses the arts to tell stories about transformational leadership, resilience, and social change. She is the founder/executive director of the Cultural Center for Social Change, a professor at American University, co-editor of Grassroots Leadership & the Arts for Social Change, and the producer/host of Wasn't That A Time: Stories & Songs That Moved The Nation, a weekly show on WERA FM.

DAVID & SOPHIE BUSKIN
David Buskin has been performing since 1970 and has recorded 15 albums--solo, with the duo Buskin & Batteau, and with the notorious comedy band Modern Man. David's songs have been recorded by Judy Collins, Peter, Paul & Mary, Johnny Mathis, Astrud Gilberto, Tom Rush, Roberta Flack, and others. Now he is performing with his daughter Sophie, creating a magical vocal blend and musical style drawn from David's folkie roots and Sophie's alternative bands and choral training.

KIRSTEN MAXWELL
"I never thought I'd ever hear a voice as angelic and mesmerizing as I did when I first started listening to Joan Baez some 50 years ago, but then I heard the voice, the songs and melodies of Kirsten Maxwell," says Jon Stein, host of Hootenanny Café on WTBQ. Maxwell has been performing since the age of five, beginning on the stage of the Amato Opera in the East Village and more recently opening for Melissa Etheridge. She has earned national recognition as an award-winning songwriter and compelling performer.

ELIAS LADINO ENSEMBLE
Since 1976, The Elias Ladino Ensemble has performed the songs of the Sephardic Jews in venues all over the world. The Ladino language and culture arose from a group of Spanish Jews who fled to the Ottoman Empire after their expulsion from Spain in 1492. There are Ladino songs of love and lust, drinking and disappointment, wedding songs and circumcision songs. Some date back to ancient Spain, while others reveal melodies and rhythms of the Balkan and Middle Eastern communities where they lived in exile. Daniel Elias, director and founder, plays Greek clarinet. Maurice Sedacca, a descendant of the Sedacca family of Turkey, plays guitar and oud and combines jazz, gypsy, Middle Eastern and classical styles.

MARA GOODMAN
Mara was a cantorial soloist for 35 years. She sings for dance and theatre, and gives concerts of ethnic and classical songs. Tonight will be an evening of mostly Yiddish songs, an Arabic song, and a dance containing a Hebrew prayer. We will consider eternal human questions: How can I make a living? Why is there injustice? When will we make peace? And great joys; a little child, a secret love. Performers: Mara Goodman, alto. Martha Siegel, cello. Rose Moskowitz, pianist/violist/mezzo. Laura Liben, guitarist/percussionist/melodica player/alto. Barbara Roan, dancer/choreographer. Andrea Goodman, soprano.

Public · Hosted by FABnyc
Please join the Sara D Roosevelt Park - Stanton Street Coalition, Green Map System , University Settlement Society of New York, and FABnyc for It's Our Park Day. A neighborhood festival supporting the return of the Stanton Street building to community use.

Saturday, September 15
Afternoon session — 2pm-5pm
The afternoon will include speeches from organizers and local representatives along with live music, dancing and martial arts lessons, art-making activities, free bike repair services, a youth bike helmet giveaway, and opportunities to get involved in the campaign.

Evening session — 8:30pm-9:30pm
The evening will feature projections by The Illuminator of artwork made during the afternoon session along with historical images from the site and neighborhood visions for the Stanton Street building's future.

The Stanton Building Task Force was formed by the Sara D. Roosevelt Park Coalition, University Settlement and Green Map System to return a NYC Park building to the neighbors of the park. Though the building was built for community use in 1934, the building became storage for all of Manhattan’s parks following the city’s financial crisis of the 1970s. Despite promises dating back to 1998, now, twenty years later, there is progress to report and new ways to get involved.

Support the return of the Stanton Street building for community use!

Directed By John Sayles  Starring Joe Morton,  Darryl Edwards,  Steve James
A mute, black alien crash-lands in Harlem in this lo-fi lost treasure, which balances wry comedy with a heartfelt political consciousness.

Screening followed by Q&A with director John Sayles and producer Maggie Renzi, moderated by Columbia Film professor Jamal Joseph.

Long before Get Out and Sorry to Bother You, John Sayles made a film that used science fiction tropes as a way to explore race relations here on Earth. His fourth movie as a director was a sly satire about a mute extraterrestrial visitor (Joe Morton) who resembled an African-American man... except for the three toes on each of his feet. As Roger Ebert wrote at the time, “When the movies started to talk, they began to lose the open-eyed simplicity with which they saw the world. The Brother From Another Planet tells the story of a man who cannot talk, but who can read minds, listen carefully, look deep into eyes, and provide a sort of mirror for our society. That makes it sound serious, but like all the most serious movies, it's a comedy.” (Ira Deutchman distributed the movie while at Cinecom.

This screening is part of NY Indie Guy: Ira Deutchman and the Rise of Independent Fil

On September 14-16 and September 20-23, 2018, Columbia University’s Lenfest Center for the Arts will host a retrospective exhibit honoring the career of Film Professor and Producing Concentration Supervisor Ira Deutchman. Since 1975, Deutchman has been a leader in distributing, marketing, and producing American independent films, international films, and arthouse films. He is perhaps best known for founding and running the distribution companies Cinecom, Fine Line Features, and Emerging Pictures. Deutchman has taught at Columbia since 1987.

This retrospective will screen essential motion pictures from various points in Deutchman’s career, such as The Brother From Another Planet; Diva; Harlan County USA; sex, lies, & videotape; Swoon; and A Woman Under the Influence. Many showings will feature Q&A talkbacks with filmmakers or performers. The celebration will also include panel discussions and an extensive exhibit covering Deutchman’s impact on cinema.

All screenings and panels will take place in the Katharina Otto-Bernstein Screening Room at the Lenfest Center for the Arts, 615 W. 129th St., New York.  All films will be accompanied by either an introduction or a Q&A session.

The Resistance goes to the museum. Join us for a fun social outing as we think about how this exhibit speaks to the issues and challenges that we are working on."Our daily lives are saturated with information; we consume supposedly “neutral” media that implicitly supports existing power structures, yet we simultaneously fear “fake news” without critically analyzing the truths and biases that coexist in every message we see or hear. The reality is that all media has an agenda: for hundreds of years, people have used art, culture, graphics, performance, and design as central elements of social and political organizing across all realms of the political spectrum, to spread information and reimagine reality. This exhibition reflects historic and current uses of agitprop, or agitational propaganda, at the intersection of design and political organizing."Exhibit information:http://interferencearchive.org/agitate-educate-organize-agit-prop-in-the-21st-century/Space AccessibilityInterference Archive volunteers would be happy to answer any questions about the accessibility of our spaces.

Join us for a fun social outing as we think about how this exhibit speaks to the issues and challenges that we are working on.

"Our daily lives are saturated with information; we consume supposedly “neutral” media that implicitly supports existing power structures, yet we simultaneously fear “fake news” without critically analyzing the truths and biases that coexist in every message we see or hear. The reality is that all media has an agenda: for hundreds of years, people have used art, culture, graphics, performance, and design as central elements of social and political organizing across all realms of the political spectrum, to spread information and reimagine reality. This exhibition reflects historic and current uses of agitprop, or agitational propaganda, at the intersection of design and political organizing."

Algiers, Third World Capital: Elaine Mokhtefi with Amara Lakhous

Following the Algerian war for independence and the defeat of France in 1962, Algiers became the liberation capital of the Third World. Elaine Mokhtefi, a young American woman immersed in the struggle and working with leaders of the Algerian Revolution, found a home here. A journalist and translator, she lived among guerrillas, revolutionaries, exiles, and visionaries, witnessing historical political formations and present at the filming of The Battle of Algiers.

Mokhtefi crossed paths with some of the era’s brightest stars: Frantz Fanon, Stokely Carmichael, Timothy Leary, Ahmed Ben Bella, Jomo Kenyatta, and Eldridge Cleaver. She was instrumental in the establishment of the International Section of the Black Panther Party in Algiers and close at hand as the group became involved in intrigue, murder, and international hijackings. She traveled with the Panthers and organized Cleaver’s clandestine departure for France. Algiers, Third World Capital is an unforgettable story of an era of passion and promise.

Elaine Mokhtefi was born in New York. After the Second World War, she joined the youth movement for world peace and justice, becoming director of a militant student organization. In 1951 she settled in France as a translator and interpreter for international organizations in the new postwar world. In 1960, she joined a small team in New York as part of the Algerian National Liberation Front, lobbying the United Nations in support of the government in exile and working for Algerian independence. When the struggle was won, she made Algeria her home, working as a journalist and translator. She married the Algerian writer and liberation war veteran Mokhtar Mokhtefi, who died in 2015. A painter as well as a writer, she lives in New York.

How will moving to a sustainable economy affect the labor force? Germany is a climate leader making bold structural economic changes to mitigate the effects of climate change. Join us as German labor leader Reiner Hoffmann presents a lecture on the past and future labor market challenges arising from climate change mitigation policies.

Based on his experiences in Germany and the EU, Hoffmann will contrast industrial changes and the importance of structural and industrial policies in Europe and the United States. He will also discuss the effects of the transition from "brown to green" jobs, how to ensure fair transitions with good jobs, the promise and pitfalls of green industrial policies, and the role of social welfare state buffers. The lecture will be followed by a panel discussion.

David Shapiro performing Wallace Shawn's acclaimed one-man play THE FEVER
American Theatre on THE FEVER: "Recalling the onset of illness in a Third World hotel bathroom, the narrator tells about his privileged childhood, his elitist adulthood, and his gradual realization that he must share responsibility for his society’s immorality... You can react to Shawn’s play in one of two ways — you can get angry, or you can reevaluate your life.”

When this production premiered in Chicago in 1995, Wallace Shawn said: “I wish I could have done it like David did, but I didn’t know how."

Join us for another night of punk rock sing-a-longs for a cause. This time we are teaming up with the Metropolitan Anarchist Coordinating Council - MACC to raise funds for the prison support committee for Marius Mason (https://supportmariusmason.org/).

About Marius Mason:
Marius Mason is an anarchist, environmental and animal rights activist currently serving nearly 22 years in federal prison for acts of property damage carried out in defense of the planet. After being threatened with a life sentence in 2009 for these acts of sabotage, he plead guilty to arson charges at a Michigan State University lab researching genetically modified organisms for Monsanto, and admitted to 12 other acts of property damage. No one was physically harmed in these actions. At sentencing the judge applied a so-called “terrorism enhancement,” adding almost two years to an already extreme sentence requested by the prosecution. This is the harshest punishment of anyone convicted of environmental sabotage to date.

Featuring songs from:
Against Me!, Bikini Kill, Black Flag, Bratmobile, Buzzcocks, Choking Victim, The Clash, Circle Jerks, Crass, Dead Kennedys, Descendents, Devo, Flogging Molly, Fugazi, Gogol Bordello, Gorilla Biscuits, Jawbreaker, Joy Division, Minor Threat, The Misfits, NOFX, Operation Ivy, Pixies, The Pogues, Ramones, Rancid, Screeching Weasel, Sex Pistols, Sham 69, Sleater-Kinney, The Smiths, The Specials, Stiff Little Fingers, Wire, X, X-Ray Spex + More!!!

SCHEDULE

9:00–9:45am: Coffee

9:45–9:55 AM: Welcome from The People’s Forum & short opening from Christina Heatherton

10:00–11:00 AM: MARY HELEN WASHINGTON (KEYNOTE), AFTERLIVES: LEGACIES OF THE BLACK LITERARY LEFT

11:00 AM–12:30 PM: BLACK LEFT FEMINIST INTERNATIONALISM

This panel examines the radical anti-racist, anti-colonial, socialist internationalist, and feminist visions of social change, that Mary Helen Washington terms “Black Left Feminism.” Cheryl Higashida, Mariame Kaba, and John Munro discuss key intellectuals, organizers, and artists in this internationalist tradition. They consider how Black Marxist feminists like Louise Thompson Patterson, Claudia Jones, Lorraine Hansberry and others confronted racism, patriarchy, capitalism, and imperialism in their own times. Panelists explore how the anticolonial Left survived the Cold War. They will suggest how new generations of antiracists, feminists, and socialists might engage this rich political tradition in our own times. Moderated by Jordan T. Camp.

12:30-1:30 PM: Lunch (provided for all guests who RSVP)

1:45–3:15 PM: RECOVERING GLOBAL RADICALISM

Lisa Armstrong, S. Ani Mukherji, and Margaret Stevens recover lost and forgotten histories of shared global struggle. They explore the formation of radical networks across spaces and struggles from Harlem, Mexico City, San Juan, Moscow, Port-Au-Prince, to Beijing from the early to mid-twentieth century. They describe how radicals linked struggles against Jim Crow, capitalism, imperialism, apartheid, and patriarchy in shared global movements. In examining these internationalist webs, they explore how hidden histories of global radicalism can embolden international solidarity at present. Moderated by Christina Heatherton.

3:15–3:30 PM: THE PEOPLE’S FORUM PRESENTATION

3:30–4:00 PM: Break

4:00–5:00 PM: VIJAY PRASHAD (KEYNOTE), WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THE LEFT?

5:00–5:15 PM: Short Break

5:15–6:45 PM: DECOLONIZED FEMINIST FUTURES

The final session explores the challenges and promises of cohering an internationalist political project around core feminist principles. Claudia De la Cruz, Chantelle Bateman, and Melanie Yazzie will discuss the centrality of feminist organization to mass protest against the current U.S. administration, situated in global contexts of struggle. Panelists will consider their work in movements such as the Poor People’s Campaign; Diné solidarity with Palestine; among others. Looking to the future, this panel will emphasize the significance of social reproduction and the centrality of feminism to dismantling cultures of war and imperialism. Moderated by Manu Karuka.

8 PM: After Party Featuring DJ Assim + DJ KayKay47 [ask correct ending time -t.]

The event is free and open to the public. Wheelchair accessible through freight entrance. Childcare offered upon RSVP request. Organized by the Racial Capitalism Working Group, Center for the Study of Social Difference, Columbia University (CSSD), the Barnard Center for Research on Women (BCRW) in partnership with The People’s Forum (TPF) and New Directions in American Studies.
 

PARTICIPANT BIOS

Elisabeth Armstrong teaches courses on gender and movements for social, economic and environmental change, emancipatory cultural studies, and feminist archives. Her second book, Gender and Neoliberalism: The All India Democratic Women’s Association and Globalization Politics (Routledge 2014), describes the changing landscape of women’s politics for equality and liberation during the rise of neoliberalism in India between 1991-2006. Armstrong’s first book, The Retreat from Organization: U.S. Feminism Reconceptualized (SUNY, 2002), re-examines ideologies of politics and political subjectivity in US feminism from the early 1960s to the 1990s. Her recent article in Signs describes solidarity methods developed in the Women’s International Democratic Federation (WIDF) and the anti-imperialist pan-Asian women’s movement from 1942 until the mid 1960s. An ongoing research project explores the daily lives of feminist activists in India called Organizing Nephews and Uncles. Armstrong is an editorial board member of Kohl: Journal for Feminist Research on Gender and the Body in the MENA Region.

You can find her developing the leadership of anti-militarist veterans at About Face, campaigning against police violence in public schools with the Philadelphia Student Union, combating street harassment with Fostering Activism and Alternatives Now (FAAN!), challenging prevailing narratives of war as a Warrior Writers artist/facilitator, or working to uproot her own internalized militarism while parenting. She is the co-host of “The Other Veterans” podcast, founder of the Tubman-Baker Fund for Veteran Organizer of Color, and lover of Eduardo Galeano’s philosophy on utopia.
