Guerilla Café & Movie Night!

DATE: Friday, February 17th
TIME: 7:00 pm

Suggested Donation: $10-15

CISPES, the Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador will be hosting a fundraiser for an elections delegation to El Salvador March 3-17. We need your support!

Proceeds will go to material aid for social justice groups in El Salvador fighting for democracy and against capitalism. Particularly they are struggling against the conditions of neoliberalism; free trade (CAFTA), privatization of resources and social services, and unemployment. The people in El Salvador are also still fighting against U.S. intervention which has continued since the Peace Accords and is now visible through the U.S. sponsored ILEA is a international military and law enforcement training center that closely resembles the SOA and is reminiscent of U.S. training of death squads in the 1980’s. The ILEA will be based in El Salvador.

Join us for dinner and a movie. We will be screening Innocent Voices, a feature film that revisits the experience of the civil war between revolutionary guerillas and the U.S. sponsored military state in El Salvador during the 1980’s through the eyes of a young boy.

We request that you let us know if you plan on attending. Directions will be provided through contact.
