DESCRIPTION:All Empires Must Fall: Take to the streets in protest and action against 
 the G8 & capitalist war machine! Meet at 8 pm - 16th St & Mission BART.  
 From July 6-8 2005, the annual G8 summit will be held at Gleneagles Hotel 
 in Scotland. The G8 is a forum of the rulers of the eight most 
 industrialized, wealthy, and powerful states in the world. Every year they 
 meet to discuss how to further their interests, expand their empire, and 
 tighten their grip on every aspect of our lives. The consequences effect us 
 all, and their economic success comes at our expense. The G8 exists to 
 manage and maintain a system whose impacts we see all around us: war, 
 genocide, wage slavery, mass poverty, structural racism, famine, 
 environmental destruction, colonial domination in Africa, Asia, & Latin 
 America, social alienation, and accelerating attacks on working people 
 around the world.  But resistance is growing across the globe, in struggles 
 as diverse as they are numerous. And in recent years, everywhere the G8 has 
 met huge movements of people have confronted them, both demanding systemic 
 change and fighting for a global social revolution. In recognition of the 
 call to action by Peoples' Global Action (agp.org) for Global Days of 
 Action to be held against the G8, we are mobilizing for a regional 
 convergence here in San Francisco. We are calling on everyone ready to 
 fight for a better world - workers, students, revolutionaries, 
 anti-capitalists... - from across the North American West Coast to converge 
 and manifest their resistance on the streets. A Mid-West regional 
 convergence is being called for in Kansas City (check out: 
 anarchistaction.org/g8), and East Coast in Richmond, Virginia.  Our 
 convergence will be in solidarity with those descending upon the streets of 
 Scotland to face the G8 head on. We act in solidarity with revolutionaries 
 taking to the streets to defend working peoples' lives all around the 
 world: the struggle against neoliberal privatization in Bolivia; against 
 transit fare increases in Brazil, Chicago, and San Francisco; against the 
 Minutemen along the border; and against the PG&E power plant in Hunter's 
 Point.  Global capital will show the full force of its domestic military 
 capabilities in Scotland - we can confront these summits on our own terms, 
 and this mobilization is a step in that direction.  For further information
