COST: FREE!

AGENDA:

6pm Sustainable Food Reception
... 7- 9pm Movie Screening and Discussion

DESCRIPTION:

What has happened to us? Despite the most advanced medical technology in the world, we are sicker than ever by nearly every measure. Two out of every three of us are overweight. Cases of diabetes are exploding, especially amongst our younger population. About half of us are taking at least one prescription drug. Major medical operations have become routine, helping to drive health care costs to astronomical levels. Heart disease, cancer and stroke are the country's three leading causes of death, even though billions are spent each year to "battle" these very conditions. Millions suffer from a host of other degenerative diseases.

Could it be there's a single solution to all of these problems? A solution so comprehensive but so straightforward, that it's mind-boggling that more of us haven't taken it seriously?

FORKS OVER KNIVES examines the profound claim that most, if not all, of the degenerative diseases that afflict us can be controlled, or even reversed, by rejecting animal-based and processed foods. The major storyline in the film traces the personal journeys of a pair of pioneering researchers, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn.

World Food Day/ Millions against Monsanto

https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=156793347733610

October 16 at the Westwood Federal Building Millions Against Monsanto and GMO-Free Southern California will be having a World Food Day rally to promote Truth in Labeling and to raise awareness on GMOs. 

I know that this will be several weeks into the occupation, but I thought it was a good fit to some of our concerns, especially putting people over profit.

Solidarity with prison hunger strikers and political prisoners

Thousands of CA prisoners are on a hunger strike (again) against the torturous and brutal conditions of their solitary confinement/isolation in "Security Housing Units" at Pelican Bay and elsewhere. Meanwhile, local activists have been targeted by the FBI and other repressive forces, including Carlos Montes, formerly of the Brown Berets, and a leader of the Black Riders (new generation Black Panthers trying to unite those in street organizations like the Crips and Bloods behind serve-the-people, fight-the-real-enemy consciousness). There are several actions this week:

Wed., 10/12 5-8 PM So cal Library 6120 S. Vermont, press conf & open mic speak out to free Gen. T.A.C.O. (Taking All Capitalists Out) of the Black Riders

Bel Air Hotel Workers Protest

http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=287370367959110

Help us win justice for Hotel Bel-Air workers who want and deserve their jobs back!

Hotel Bel-Air closed in 2009, laying off all its workers. Now, the hotel is re-opening on Oct. 14, but the hotel has refused to recall the former employees. Many workers want their jobs back, but the hotel has refused them.

This is put on by UNITE HERE, the hotel workers union.

Put this in the calendar

On December 6th, the LA CITY COUNCIL will vote on a resolution to amend the United States Constitution to establish that only HUMAN BEINGS, not corporations, have constitutional rights and that money is NOT speech

Taking place @ Los Angeles City Hall Room 340
