Left Turn
The new, special issue of Left Turn magazine on the 10th anniversary of the Zapatista uprising is now out on newsstands. See the website to find out where to buy it locally.
To sustain and expand the magazine, the local DC collective of Left Turn will be holding a fundraiser at 4 p.m. on Saturday, March 6, at Cafe Mawonaj (624 T St. NW; Shaw/Howard University Metro stop). Members of DC's Guerilla Poetry Insurgency will lead an open mic session open to all, and Enoch212, an "industrial, anti-capitalist hip-hop" band, will perform. The suggested donation is $5 but no one will be turned away.
Come out, enjoy the socially conscious poetry and music, and pick up a copy of the new issue of Left Turn. For more information, call 866/860-9311.
DC Metro Action is published by Michael Schlesinger, a 32-year veteran of electoral and issue organizing who is committed to social justice and to increasing participation in the political process.
