[luce guillen-givins (luce]

----PLEASE FORWARD----

*A discussion on strategic militancy, and a benefit for Dane Rossman*

When: April 11, 7pm
Where: Minnehaha Free Space, 3747 Minnehaha Ave S, Mpls
(childcare will be provided)

U.S. and Canadian authorities are pumping increasingly greater resources
into investigating and pursuing politically motivated property
destruction. Currently 5 comrades are being extradited to Canada to face
charges for alleged G20-related property damage. At the same time in the
Pacific Northwest, several grand jury resisters have been jailed and
expansive resources spent, in relation to an investigation of property
damage at the 2012 May Day protests in Seattle.

*Why is the state putting more resources into prosecuting property
damage, and how do our strategic and tactical choices in struggle affect
the repression we face?*

Speakers will include:

-David Pellow (U of M professor of Sociology and member of Scholars for
Academic Justice): Prof. Pelllow will give historic context and explore
patterns of state repression.

-Sebastian (friend of Dane Rossman): Sebastian will discuss how G20
repression is going international with the Canadian government's
extradition of 5 Americans for alleged offenses stemming from the 2012
G20 protests in Toronto.
