Join NYC Jericho & Friends for an evening dedicated to Struggles for the
Land at The Brecht Forum 451 West Street (West Side Highway, between Bank &
Bethune Streets)

Friday, June 15, 2007
7 to 10 p.m.

Screening of the film
Un Granito de Arena (A Grain of Sand)

For over 20 years, global economic forces have been dismantling public
education in Mexico, but always in the constant shadow of popular
resistance. Granito de Arena is the story of that resistance, the story of
hundreds of thousands of public schoolteachers whose grassroots, non-violent
movement took Mexico by surprise, and who have endured brutal repression and
incarceration in their 25-year struggle for social and economic justice in
Mexico’s public schools.

Speakers will include:
Ismael Guadalupe Ortiz

Vieques Land Struggle Activist

Report from Chiapas

Invited speakers on the Oaxaca struggle

Light refreshments will be served
