SUMMARY:Amnesty International Punk Write-a-thon!
LOCATION:Turbo Haüs
URL:https://www.rave.ca/en/event/57472/
DESCRIPTION:Forest fires in Indonesia\, AI death cults in San Francisco\, jet-powered drones\nhurtling autonomously into Kyiv\, brigades of young isreali men with slingshots\nattacking olive farmers in the West Bank\, the highest U.S. military budget in\nhistory\, the largest hurricane ever recorded off the coast of Mexico\, tent city\nconcentration camps all across the Unite States\, unprecedented flooding in\nChile\, increasing femicides here in Montreal. This world feels so sick and I\ndon't know about you but I feel insane and honestly\, I think that’s a sane\nresponse. And there is only one antidote. Community engagement\, community\nactivism and community support. I'll be honest it won’t fix the bigger picture.\nBut it will make a difference for your immediate feelings of paralysis and it\nwill make a huge difference specifically in the lives of 8 people all of whom\nare fighting for causes unrelated to anything I mentioned above. This world is\nsick in so many directions and we all need to step up to help ourselves and help\none another.\n\nThis year for Amnesty Internationals 25th anniversary of the annual\nWrite-for-Rights campaign I will be hosting a letter writing event combined with\nan energetic live music show at Turbo Haus. We will spend the afternoon writing\nletters to political activists in eight different countries letting them know\nthat we see them\, we hear them and we believe in their cause. I cannot overstate\nhow meaningful these letters are to people working tirelessly on the front lines\nto defend human rights for all. This heads-down-but-social afternoon will be\nbroken up by 3 bands\, my own band You Enemy\, Sara Elbourne and "Dirty Milk". So\nbring your wrists\, your minds and your ears and let's inspire one another to\npush for a better future.\n\nSOURCE: https://montreal.askapunk.net/event/amnesty-international-punk-write-a-thon/
