Prejudice Against Blondes
Dennis Meanise,

There is a form of racist prejudice in this country that seldom is ever acknowledged—namely prejudicial stereotyping of blonde people (particularly in negative ways). Often it is subtle and other times notso; and yet it seems more pervasive than many people may be willing to believe.

Same-Sex Marriage: New Civil Rights Moment
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger's Newsmagazine,

California will be THE political battleground over same-sex marriage rights in 2006, said Evan Wolfson, former staff attorney with Lambda Legal Defense and currently executive director of Freedom to Marry, in a speech at the Center April 21. A marriage equality bill is being pushed through the California legislature this year, while radical-Right activists are seeking to put on the ballot an initiative that will not only block same-sex marriage in California but repeal the state's pioneering domestic partner law as well and leave same-sex couples in this state with no legal recognition or protection whatsoever.

Fighting for Free Radio in Mexico City
Onto and Kev - imc reporters in Mexico City,

Radio Zapote, a free radio transmitting from the National School of Anthropology and History (ENAH) in Mexico City, received word from a school official that they were to be evicted in two weeks.

The news came as a surprise to members of the radio's collective, who, in constant dialogue with the school, were only incidentally informed of the intention of eviction. Tuesday, Thomas Stanford, a professor at the ENAH who has been harassing Radio Zapote for years, arrived in the radio's space with an engineer to take measurements for his furniture, as if the radio was on the way out.

Lost Film Festival in SD Sunday!
sd indymedia,

San Diego Indymedia and Voz Alta will be hosting the Lost Film Festival on Sunday.

This is a last minute announcement for an awesome event. Tell your friends! Its gonna rock!

Sunday, April 17th, 6pm
Voz Alta, 1544 Broadway

LOST FILM FEST is a laugh-a-riot event with equal emphasis on both "laugh" and "riot." Focusing on pranks vs. corporations and government institutions. If George W. Bush makes you puke and you dig pie fights with cops, riot footage, and culture jamming, you'll love the punk rock urgency of the Lost Film Fest and its celebration of media archaeology and illegal art.

Lost Film Fest from West Philadelphia is a traveling multimedia spectacle incorporating live performance and video. It's a truly independent, anti-authoritarian, anti-corporate grassroots DIY media extravaganza hosted by Festival Director Scott Beibin (Bloodlink Records, Evil Twin Booking.) Beibin travels the globe telling stories and spinning movies like a DJ using a video projector, dvd player, and backpack filled with goodies. The roadshow incorporates a sexy, smash-it-up, radical anti-capitalist anti-globalization perspective. Truly "Too Hot for TV" since 1999, the LFF has featured scathing and hilarious social commentary in the form of narrative shorts, documented pranks, hot amateur protest footage, and video re-mixes. Additionally there is an annual weeklong event held in Philly, and guerilla visits to Sundance, SXSW, and Cannes. This jam is about smashing the illusions cast by Hollywood, the Pentagon, and FOX

Nader: "Towering Similarities" of Reps, Dems
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger's Newsmagazine,

Author, veteran activist and three-time Presidential candidate Ralph Nader came to San Diego April 4 and spoke twice in one day — once at the World Beat Center in North Park and once in North County — as part of a nationwide tour to pay off his debts from his 2004 Presidential campaign. Though he spent much of his time attacking President Bush for leading an illegal war in Iraq and running the government for the benefit of his rich friends in corporate America, he also alluded to the “towering similarities” between the Republican and Democratic parties and defended his decision to run in 2004 as an independent candidate.

TO ALL RW READERS:Change is in the air
duko,

We are excited to announce that on May 1st 2005 we will be
changing the name of the RW/OR to

REVOLUTION.

We believe this name change more fully reflects our
revolutionary communist ideology and politics, and the enriched
vision of a tribune of the people that has been pioneered by
RCP Chairman Bob Avakian.

This May 1st will mark the end of 25 years of the
Revolutionary Worker/Obrero Revolucionario!
