2. Wobblies and Zapatistas Café for Radical Change, December 6th, 5-8pm, 
Rhizome Café, 317 E Broadway.

Join us for an evening of radical politics, good eats and drinks, and the 
chance to get IWW and Zapatista goods and info. ??The Wobblies and 
Zapatistas Café aims to create a space for dialogue that can bring into 
conversation two very interesting and important movements for social change: 
the Industrial Workers of the World IWW, or Wobblies) and the Zapatista 
Movement. The event will be a mix between Café and storefront, so that 
friends and fellow workers, new and old, and those curious about the links 
between the IWW and the Zapatistas can meet and build alliances-all in space 
supportive of grassroots organizing, solidarity with indigenous autonomous 
movements, and fair trade, union made products. The Rhizome will have their 
full menu of beverages and food available - so come for dinner and a 
drink!?For more information contact: scarleto at sfu.ca or erikasdream at yahoo.ca
