DESCRIPTION:Friday, Dec. 5\n\n7 PM and 9:30 PM\n\nLocation: 600 4th St, West Sacramento 
 (corner of 4th & F in West Sac, just over the river from downtown 
 Sacramento - parking lot is off of F between 4th & 5th 
 Streets).\n\nAdmission: $5.00\n\nObscene\n\nBarney Rosset is the greatest 
 American publisher of the twentieth century and the most influential 
 cultural figure that you haven't heard of. Under Rosset, Grove Press and 
 Evergreen Review fought decisive battles, including many before the state 
 and federal supreme courts, defeated legal censorship, and opened American 
 life to new and dangerous currents of freedom. But Rosset's public fight 
 against hypocrisy and injustice is inextricable from his tumultuous 
 personal life: the same unyeilding, quixotic, restless energy that upended 
 centuries of law brought Rosset perilously close to destruction.\n\nWith: 
 Barney Rosset, Amiri Baraka, Jim Carroll, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Al 
 Goldstein, Erica Jong, Ray Manzarek, Michael McClure, John Rechy, Ed 
 Sanders, John Sayles, Gore Vidal, and John Waters.\n\nAnd archival footage 
 featuring Lenny Bruce, William S. Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Henry Miller, 
 and Malcolm X. \n\nThis recently screened at The Roxie in San Francisco, 
 and it's a great look at Rosset and first amendment issues, particularly 
 within the realm of publishing.\n\nLocal author, poet, CSUS professor and 
 co-founder of the publishing company Roan Press, Brad Buchanan will be in 
 attendance to speak and discuss issues in the film following the 7 PM 
 screening only (there will be no speaker after the 9:30 PM screening of 
 this).\n\nAnd this one is co-sponsored by The Book Collector - 1008 24th St 
 (between J and K streets)!!  Don't forget 'em if you're out shopping for 
 Christmas presents - it's a great, friendly indie used book store that does 
 a ton of stuff to support local poetry and literature!  And us!!!\n\nThis
