DESCRIPTION:A Community for Direct Public Health invites you out to\nAn evening 
 of….\n\nOverdose Prevention and Training presentation by us and video by 
 Chicago Recovery Alliance Harm Reductionists \n\nBrief timeline: \n\nIn 
 1895 Bayer Corporation invented and sold a cough suppressant in a bottle 
 over the counter. It contained heroin. It was shortly after outlawed. By 
 1914 it was criminalized non-clinically too distribute any opiates or 
 opioids. Since then, heroin surged the U.S., especially in the 1970’s 
 during the Vietnam War.\n\nThis is an age of easy access to harder more 
 synthetic drugs. Over a hundred years of a system hell-bent on the evils of 
 natural earth based psychotropics. Poor communities are most effected by 
 this. Budget cuts, no jobs, and foreclosures reap our misery. And we wonder 
 why escapisms and socio-economic disparity have developed and class war is 
 apparent and HERE.\n\nHeroin and Opiates are used more now than ever in 
 recorded U.S. history and makes there way to the states from Afghanistan 
 now more since the 1980’s. Opioids like Oxycontin, Percocet, and dilaudid 
 are so accessible from the street corners to the friend next door to 
 doctors writing scripts for sunburns. 70 people a day die from accidental 
 overdose. These people are victims of a stigmatized society and a 
 relentless and useless drug war. Do It Yourself Prevention and Education is 
 the best way we can help out those that use intravenously.\n\n\n\n*Brief 
 update on Modesto Needle Exchange defendants facing Trial for running 
 illegal Exchange. Rally with them as they get prepared for pre-trial at 
 their next court date Mon. Feb. 7th 2011 at Modesto Superior Court, 800 
 11th St. downtown Modesto in Dept. 8 at 8:30am. \n\nFree to the public. 
 Harm Reduction Literature table on hand. \n\n\nWE LOVE DRUG USERS  - TEACH 
 COMPASSION and AUTONOMY!\n\n\n\n
