Issue No. 146: Student Strike Today!


November 17
Student Strike: In New York and across the Nation

We Teach In the Streets

Thursday, November 17, 3pm: New York-Wide Student & Education Workers Convergence @ Union Square.

After the cynical reasoning and brutal tactics used by Mayor Bloomberg, the FBI, and the NYPD to squash the Occupy Wall Street movement, come out and support this convergence.

Student supporters of Occupy Wall Street are holding actions every day this week at universities throughout New York City to draw attention to issues such as student debt, tuition hikes, university ties to Wall Street, workers' rights and structural inequalities within our schools and our communities.

Unlike the "Arab Spring," the "We are the 99 percent" movement isn't about revolution or regime change, but about contesting a system that seems less fair than imagined and less equal than ought to be. It's about the socio-economic conditions that have produced a vast and unsustainable inequality in this country and globally. People from across the divides of class, profession, race and gender feel at a visceral level this sense of inequality or unfairness. In New York City, it's not simply the existing gap in wealth and equality that needs to be addressed, it's that large swathes of the population, literally cannot see a path by which they can plausibly join the ranks of elite urban society, not to mention a lifetime of indebtedness.

Join thousands of students and workers from around the city tomorrow at 3pm as we show solidarity with OWS and our strength together as the 99%.

Issue No. 142: Tribute 2 a Queen

Mother


The Leslie-Lohman Museum of Gay and Lesbian Art presents:

Tribute to a Queen: Flawless Sabrina
Curated by: Inbred Hybrid Collective
November 15th, 2011 (5:30-8:30pm)

The Leslie-Lohman Museum of Gay and Lesbian Art in New York City, the United States’ first and only museum of LGBTQ art, invites you to an evening tribute celebrating a legendary American artist and cultural icon, Jack Doroshow, aka Flawless Sabrina.

A one-night event, this will be a rare glimpse into the life and mind of a creator whose multi-decade influence on queer identity will continue to capture the imaginations of artists for years to come. Featuring paintings, photographs, outfits, wigs, video, readings, and ephemera, this event will also offer a rare screening of the seminal 1968 film, “The Queen.”

The event will provide a historical context for Flawless Sabrina for the purpose of educational entertainment, beginning with early activism, which has continued throughout Flawless' career, and, where possible, actual documentation from the archives will be displayed.

This will include press clippings, scribblings, paintings and photographs. This pioneering legend is still going strong, and there's no better time to show the triumphant performer at her peak. Flawless will read from her soon to be published book, accompanied by writers and performers including Brandon Olson, Inbred Hybrid Collective, and Rami Shamir.

Program:

5:30- 6:40 Presentation of the film, “The Queen”
6:40- 7:00 Gallery viewing, sales table open, wine bar,
7:00- 8:00 Readings by Rami Shamir, Inbred Hybrid Collective,
