some months ago I said that I would not post unless for a very good reason. here you have my second reason. I support Camilo's cause not because of the politics but because a gentle, nonviolent man who I happen to know might spend decades of his life in jail if others do not act.
even if you cannot attend please check out the links to Friends of Camilo and write a letter or postcard if you have the time. peope in Boston, Providence and Philadelphia can work with local chapters there.
and now the text of the annoucement:
Hiphop Femcee Cathy Cathodic
(http://www.cathycathodic.com) and
raconteur/author/letter writing guy Rich Mackin
(http://www.richmackin.org) will perform in Cambridge Mass. at a free
show to benefit Camilo Viveiros.
Arrested at the Republican National Convention in
2000, though free for now on bail, Camilo faces
serious charges. At this show we ask you only to write
a letter to the judge which we will send in for you.
For more information on his case go to
http://www.friendsofcamilo. If you cannot attend the
show perhaps you could write a letter or postcard
anyway?
The event will begin at 7 p.m. at the Zeitgeist
Gallery, 1353 Cambridge Street in Central Square
Cambridge. (Phone 617-876-6060 to reach.) Please
give some support! Camilo will go to trial October
9 so little time remains. |
