Dear allies, Please join us for two rapidly approaching events this Fri
December 4 (Celebrate Resistance!) and Sat December 5 (Crafts for a Cause,
in which NOII will be participating), both at Rhizome Cafe. Hope you are
keeping warm this winter!


Celebrating Resistance!

Friday December 4 @ 6:30-9:30 pm
Rhizome Cafe, 317 East Broadway
Vancouver, Coast Salish Territories

No One Is Illegal invites you to an informal end-of-year gathering to
celebrate resistance, our collective victories, and the struggle ahead
particularly against the 2010 Olympics. Come hangout, let us get to know
one another; this is an informal gathering. We will be screening a video
by Vancouver Media Coop from the Anti-Olympic Speakers Corner we hosted
last month, as well as a series of other short, informative and inspiring
videos. Followed by music and enjoy food from Rhizome's menu
(including pay-what-you-feel yummy lentil stew). Let us build solidarity
and strength for the year ahead!

For more information, contact noii-van at resist.ca.

[No One Is Illegal will have brand new tshirts, posters, postcards,
crafts, and other goodies you won't want to miss!]
