DESCRIPTION:Hi rad moviegoers,  Last month we spent time with NNIRR watching "Uprooted: 
 Refugees of the  Global Economy" and "New World Border" in an immigration 
 rights  double-feature. This coming Tuesday, August 31st, we'll experience 
 a piece  of local radical organizing history with "Fall of the I-Hotel". 
 Bring your  friends! This one is a benefit for the Chinese Progressive 
 Association, one  of the original tenants of the I-Hotel.  ** The Fall of 
 the I-Hotel  Tuesday, August 31st 8pm  This film brings to life the battle 
 for housing in San Francisco. The brutal  eviction of the I-Hotel's tenants 
 in 1977 ended a decade of spirited  resistance. Almost 20 years since the 
 International Hotel's demolition, the  former site of the heart of 
 Manilatown and home to more than 10,000 people  in the 1950s, is still 
 vacant. Many of its surviving elderly residents still  seek low-cost 
 replacement housing. This film resonates very clearly as  homelessness 
 becomes a fact of life in many cities today.  Stayed Tuned for Your Next 
 Installment!  Televising the Revolution: a Radical Film Series at  El Rio 
 Bar  3158 Mission St. @ Cesar Chavez, SF  (415) 282-3325

 Please join us for Tuesdays of radical films, discussions, and  support 
 local organizing while we're at it! Each film will benefit a  different 
 local organization, but donations are appreciated, not required.
