DESCRIPTION:Rebellion and Repression in Mexico – A Benefit Screening for Project 
 TUPA\n\nOn Sunday, August 27th Project TUPA will present a screening 
 of:\n\nGranito de Arena (Grain of Sand)\n\nFor over 20 years, global 
 economic forces have been dismantling public education in Mexico, but 
 always in the constant shadow of popular resistance…\n\nGranito de Arena 
 is the story of that resistance – the story of hundreds of thousands of 
 public school teachers whose grassroots, non violent movement took Mexico 
 by surprise, and who have endured brutal repression in their 25 year 
 struggle for social and economic justice in Mexico’s public 
 schools.\n\nAtenco: Breaking the Siege\n\nThis video analyzes the events in 
 San Salvador Atenco during the first days of may 2006 and denounces the 
 violation of the civilian population’s human rights by state and federal 
 police forces.  The documentary deconstructs the mass media’s operating 
 methods, which were responsible for creating a climate of fear and an 
 information blockade on the events in San Salvador Atenco.\n\nThe screening 
 will be held at the Humanist Hall, 390 27th Street in Oakland, California 
 starting at 6:30 p.m. with a sliding scale admission of 
 $10-$20.\n\nProceeds benefit Project TUPA, a project of Free Radio 
 Berkeley.  Project TUPA (Transmitters Uniting the Peoples of the Americas) 
 is working with indigenous, barrio and campesino communities in Mexico, 
 Central and South America to create and maintain community broadcast 
 stations.  All funds from this event will be used to supply materials and 
 equipment for a series of transmitter building and station construction 
 workshops to be held in Mexico during September, 2006.\n\nFor further 
 information, please contact Project TUPA.  \n(510)
