A punk rock benefit show for the newly group California Anarchist Prisoner Solidarity will take place at 924 Gilman Street in Berkeley, Friday, November 12 at 8pm.
the bands playing are: submission hold (from Canada!) eskapo angry for life myth of progress SCA the show costs 5-7 dollars sliding scale plus a two dollar membership if you do not have one. California Anarchist Prisoner Solidarity (CAPS) has formed to support those who face incarceration as a direct response to their beliefs or actions which challenge the oppressive nature of the state, the injustices that exist due to class, racism, sexism, and homophobia, or the destruction of the earth and the species who inhabit it. We recognize that the plight of political prisoners is only a small part of the sprawling injustice of the global Prison Industrial Complex. We seek the abolition of prisons as part of a dismantling of all repressive state apparatus and also extend our solidarity to those imprisoned around the world. However, we have chosen to focus the majority of our limited resources on political prisoners in California with the idea that if we do not fight locally for those who suffer as a result of our common struggle then our beliefs themselves become meaningless. Through corresponding with prisoners, fundraising on their behalf, and building public awareness by circulating information on their situations, we hope to remind those on the inside that they are not alone, while helping to break down the bars that separate us and inspiring those on the outside to continue their battle. |
