DESCRIPTION:Death Threats:\n\nThe Politics of Displacement and Community Self 
 Determination\n\nTuesday, November 10, 7:00pm\nCabrillo College; Aptos 
 campus room 225 SAC east\nSimón Sedillo is a community rights defense 
 organizer and film maker. He has spent the last 7 years documenting, 
 producing and teaching community based video documentation in Mexico and 
 the US. Through multimedia presentations Sedillo helps show some effects of 
 neoliberalism on indigenous communities, immigrant communities, and 
 communities of color in the US and Mexico. Through collaborative media 
 projects, Sedillo’s work has contributed to a growing network of 
 community based media production whose primary objective is to share, 
 teach, and learn from one another, about community based media production 
 and the collective construction of horizontal networks of community rights 
 defense.\nFall 2009 Tour\nWorkshop: The Politics of Displacement and 
 Community Self Determination\n\n\nThis workshop identifies several specific 
 institutions, which threaten the lives of average everyday people 
 everywhere. From banks and corporations to non-profits and universities, 
 what role do these institutions have in making the poor stay poor, while 
 making the rich get richer? This workshop also shows how the political 
 devaluation of traditional forms of self governance and self determination, 
 has lead to the degradation of entire sectors of society. Finally this 
 workshop shares some indigenous strategies for community based self 
 determination in guiding struggles for urban community liberation.\nShort 
 Film: La Familia Raices\n\nShort documentary on the family and Son Jarocho 
 band ¨Los Raices¨ from Oaxaca. The Raices Family play traditional Son 
 Jaracho music in support of the Oaxacan people's social movement. This 
 traditional Afro-indigenous music originates in the state of Veracruz and 
 is also traditionally played in some parts of the state of Oaxaca. This 
 musical tradition is based upon popular education, collective organizing, 
 and long term self determination for its musicians and instrument makers. 
 The Raices family breaks through the difficulties faced by any family, with 
 music, resistance, and determination.\n			\n
