DESCRIPTION:Film screening of subMedia.tv's "Street Politics 101" about the 2012 
 student strike in Montréal, Canada. Plus a screening of the latest 
 Stimulator episode with updates from the student strike currently unfolding 
 in Montréal. \n\nDescription of Street Politics 101 from 
 subMedia.tv:\n\nIn the spring of 2012, a massive student strike in 
 opposition to a tuition hike, rocked the streets of the Montréal for over 
 six months. Protests and militant street actions became part of the daily 
 and nightly reality of this Canadian metropolis. Several times during this 
 tumultuous spring, the numbers in the streets would reach over one hundred 
 thousand.  Police routinely clubbed students and their allies, and arrested 
 them by the hundreds. Some were even banned from entering the city. But 
 every time the cops struck, the student movement got bigger and 
 angrier.\n\nThis is a story about how the arrogance of a government, 
 underestimated a dedicated group of students, who through long term 
 organizing laid the foundation for some of the largest mass demonstrations 
 in Canada’s history. But it is also a story of how a crews of determined 
 anarchists, educated a new generation of students, in the importance of 
 owning the streets.\n\nIn Street Politics 101, subMedia.tv features some of 
 the best footage from what some called “the maple spring.” It also 
 features interviews with students, teachers and anarchists involved in one 
 of the most militant rebellions in Quebec.\n
