Dear Members,

Please check out this great event at the store tomorrow with Brandon
Jourdan and Marianne Maeckelbergh. Some of you will remember Brandon from
his time as an Internationalist volunteer and his work with Indymedia in
Chapel Hill, and we've just gotten Marianne's book "The Will of the Many:
How the Alterglobalisation Movement is Changing the Face of Democracy" in
at the store!

Tomorrow! Friday, Dec. 21st, 7 pm at Internationalist Books and Community
Center:

GLOBAL UPRISINGS IN THE AGE OF AUSTERITY
A night of video dispatches from the front lines

Since the dawn of the most recent crisis of capitalism in 2008, there
have been uprisings all over the globe. Around the world, advocates
for a different world and different social relations have engaged in
strikes, riots, and occupations, while simultaneously creating
networks of solidarity and mutual aid. Filmmaker Brandon Jourdan and
researcher Marianne Maeckelbergh have been documenting these revolts
as they unfold, reporting from Greece, Spain, Portugal, Egypt, the UK
and the US as part of their online film series at
www.globaluprisings.org. Their reports have been featured on news
outlets and websites like Democracy Now, Grit TV, Adbusters,
Salon.com, Reflections On A Revolution, Submedia.tv Stir, and
CounterPunch. They will join us on December 21st at Internationalist
Books for a salon and retrospective of their mini-documentaries
together with a discussion about the evolution of the global economic
crisis and how people are organizing in response.

For more info on their project, visit: www.globaluprisings.org


Also, don't forget that Tuesday, Dec 25th, 10am Christmas Caroling Outside
Central Prison- Hello numerous codefendants, friends and supporters. All
are invited to the Fr. Charlie Mulholland Catholic Worker House annual
Christmas morning witness and caroling at Central Prison at 10 A.M. (We
meet under the railroad trestle on Western Blvd. Enter Boylan Heights
through Boylan Ave.) We hold a big Merry Christmas sign and bring the only
cheer the inmates get on Christmas (The warden does not allow visiting on
Christmas to give more guards the day off). Peace and Blessings, Patrick
O'Neill
