Protest Target!

Davis Anti-Authoritarians — Sat, 21 Oct 2006 18:14:13 GMT

Hello, all. There's a new community activist group, the Davis Anti-Authoritarians, in town, and we were wondering if you would like to do some cheering during an anti-sweatshop demo against Target. We want to do this on tuesday the 24th, but if that doesn't happen (It might not) we'll shoot for the next tuesday. Hit us up at davisrebels@yahoo.com, and join our yahoo group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Davisantiauthoritarians.

Peace,
The DAA Collective

Hello :)

funkyfemmedyke — Sun, 28 Aug 2005 18:57:19 GMT

I'm so dissappointed to have missed the last few meetings. I'd like to get back into the swing of things.

Afriend of mine forwarded this to me from an APOC listserv. i thought it might be a good place for some radical cheerleading.

Gay Shame calls on you to resist the sham of NGLTF's Creating Change
Conference™ in Oakland, CA November 9-13 using direct action,
infiltration, sabotage, redecoration, performance, disruption,
transformation and anything else your delicious imagination concocts.

Each year, Creating Change™ recruits hundreds of fresh faces for
corporate “nonprofit” jobs instead of challenging the career activist
industry that serves to pacify threats to the status quo. Nonprofits
claim to create an alternative to everyday oppression, when in reality
they replicate the same deadly inequalities that exist in the larger
world, continuing to benefit the privileged few at the top while
robbing everyone else. Nonprofits mimic the power-hungry mentality of
the corporate world by developing hierarchical organizations with
Executive Directors and donors instead of CEOs and shareholders. Does
NGLTF make sure their office's own janitorial staff has access to
basic services like housing, healthcare, food, rest, transportation
and free time? Are unpaid interns at NGLTF more empowered than temp
workers at Halliburton?

We’re sick of the Creating Change™ money machine. How can we build an
anti-racist movement at the Oakland Marriott City Center? Marriott is
the Mormon-owned global tourism pioneer famous for building exclusive
resorts on impoverished islands to help wealthy white people to
participate in hands-on colonialism one Mai Tai luau at a time. How is
supporting this chain helping indigenous communities to reclaim the
land stolen from them? How will spending your money at the Marriott
help to reduce backbreaking labor for poorly-paid housekeeping staff?

NGLTF is working hard for social and economic justice and freedom at
the Advocate Golf Classic --presented by Subaru-- in the classic
desert weather of Palm Springs. How much are undocumented immigrants
being paid to water the sun-squelched golfing greens by cover of
night? How many millions of gallons of water are pumped through
underground aquifers hundreds of miles away, destroying wildlife
habitats, ecological resources and community farming and rendering
low-income communities powerless?

NGLTF is building an anti-racist movement at the Winter Party on the
white sands of South Beach. Will the several thousand buff, tan white
men PnP’ing to the sounds of Phil B. lead a revolt to free the
hundreds of prisoners illegally jailed for their skin color and
religious beliefs, 90 miles away at the US’s Guantanamo Bay naval
base? Will a six-day crystal binge lead bench-pressing muscle queens
to burn down police stations, end Jim Crow segregation, and dismantle
the prison industrial complex?

This year’s Creating Change™ catalog invokes The Wizard of Oz to say,
“Surrender, Dorothy? Never!” But Gay Shame isn’t counting on the Good
Witch to rescue us. NGLTF might break out the broom (or ask the
janitorial staff to wheel in the Hoover), but in reality NGLTF
prevents change by strengthening people’s allegiances to violent
institutions like marriage and the military. Instead of salivating
over straight privilege, Dorothy needs to concentrate on building
radical alternatives. Until then… Surrender, or Else!

Cheer Book

riotgrrl — Thu, 02 Jun 2005 06:22:31 GMT

Namely: we need one.

Take the time to find some cheers that you would like to do and share them with me. We can then get jiggy with them. Once I get some feedback I will start working on a draft.
