 Shop  3124 Shattuck Avenue  Berkeley California  Interview (video) with 
 founder Rauda Morcos;  Come watch Rauda talk about: Gay Rights, Occupation, 
 Systemic Change and Oppression.  Stay for Conversation and the Queer Arab 
 Film Garden  ASWAT (voices) is a courageous and dynamic group of Queer 
 Palestinian women who have decided to organize to challenge the status quo 
 and to improve their own lives, and to hopefully secure equal rights for 
 themselves and for those who come after them. ASWAT is the first and only 
 queer group in Palestine. ASWAT is generating tremendous energy as they 
 literately “make history” as the first group of Palestinian. Lesbian , 
 Bi-Sexual, and Inter-sexual, women in the middle east. They meet regularly 
 facilitating groups and produce political education for their communities. 
 They are breaking silences in all of the communities they are a part of.  
 ASWAT has been asked to leave the center they have been based out of. They 
 have asked the Radical International Community of Allies for financial 
 support. They need money to have a center open that they will feel safe and 
 welcome in. This is an amazing story or bravery in the face of extreme 
 oppression from every angle, there is no better way you can spend Sunday 
 night April 10th, 2005. Mark your calendar.  If you have any questions or 
 can help with the event. Or you can do an event in your city, or you can 
 send me donations which I will send to Palestine.  Please e-mail me at 
 freemind@riseup.net  or call 510-420-1735  \n
