I’m excited to send you word about a presentation happening Friday March 8 at the Union Project, by a friend traveling in from Sacramento, California. The purposes of the presentation are to remember actions that took place in a serious situation where hundreds of people confronted the far right in 2016, and to continue to generate letter writing and other forms of support for those indicted, during trial and sentencing.
The presentation deals with the convergence of anti-fascists that came together on June 26, 2016 in Sacramento, a rather unique coalition of groups developed roles and strategies for support and self-defense when 9 people were sent to the hospital. This event will include a talk by a member of Antifa Sacramento and a Q&A. All 9 people have recovered from their injuries, but the need for continuity of solidarity and connections across cities and regions is ever present.
If you can help announce this event locally from person to person, that would be much appreciated! We are asking that people leave info away from social media for the moment.
