a convergence of compassion and action
make the journey : their freedom is ours

ROAR :: Rock On Against Racism outside the Baxter detention centre over Easter... [Details & Flyer ] |

To all those going to Baxter:
We call for an action of mourning.
We mourn for all those trapped behind prison fences in living death
We mourn for all those who die making the journey: shot by border guards,
trapped in cargo holds; those who drowned trying to reach this island.
We mourn for a world in which people are divided by borders and
turned against one another.
We will wear black in sorrow and determination in an action of
mourning on Saturday night. A gong will sound.
QueerBloc will set off a series of pink flares in triangle formation to mourn
the countless deaths in concentration camps
through history.
We call upon everyone coming to Baxter to wear Black clothing and
join us.
We call on those not at Baxter to hold actions in Black across this island in
solidarity.
For our dead not a minute silence, but a life time of struggle.
This action will be peaceful and non-arrestable.
If anyone has any other creative ideas for actions that conserve our
energies and help keep us focussed, bring them along.
Solidarity,
Women in Black, Newtown
-- women in black, newtown
