Stand in solidarity with Toronto G20 prisoners and rally against police
and state repression.
***Demonstration This Friday at noon, Canadian Embassy***

The Toronto G20 saw over 1,000 arrested with hundreds if not thousands
detained, often with illegal or coerced search and seizure. A number of
those detained and arrested were beaten, intimidated, sexually assaulted
and threatened with rape.  Police used violent racial and ethnic targeting
throughout the weekend. This marked the largest mass arrest in Canadian
history. And the justification for an eye-watering $930 million security
budget.

18 Toronto community organizers remain charged with conspiracy. They are
currently being denied basic civil liberties and face harsh sentences if
convicted. These arrests are meant to deter dissent and condemn those who
enact their right to protest.

Right now, the Canadian police are studying their successes to prepare a
profile of best practices to be sent to police forces abroad. Police had
been infiltrating organisations for over a year in the lead up to the G20
and are now soliciting the public to become informants, largely through
the use of social media. These are the policing tactics of the future.

>From Ian Tomlinson to Toronto, police and state repression needs to stop.
While US leaders and their hand-picked allies meet behind closed doors, we
at least expect the right to raise our voices and hopes against their wars
and economic cut-backs.

Since last month?s protest the need for public pressure continues. We are
calling for a solidarity demonstration outside the Canadian Embassy, west
side of Trafalger Square, Friday 6th August 2010 at noon. Show the
Canadian government that it can no longer pose as an international
champion of human rights.

Call for action - call for
contributions:

The Feminist Poster Project

The Feminist Poster Project is a new initiative to
encourage designing, printing, sharing and distributing feminist posters and
putting up them in public places. Sexist advertisement and misogynist
media are
all around us. If we want to fight this patriarchal propaganda, we have to
produce our own images and messages. I would like to see feminist posters on
walls, feminist signs over sexist ads, feminist stickers on street signs
and feminist
postcards in our letterboxes. I would like to see a change in our
environments
and a change in people???s minds. I hope the Feminist Poster Project can
help to
achieve this.

 ??

Take a look at: http://feministposterproject.wordpress.com

 ??

As an online poster network, the Feminist Poster
Project offers a space for showing, exchanging and downloading feminist
posters, postcards and stickers. Anyone can use the posters for
non-commercial
purposes such as actions, DIY media and home decoration and anyone can
contribute their own creations. On the website you can find ??? apart from
inspiring examples of feminist graphic art ??? several DIY guides and
links on
how to make your own posters, mix wheat paste, use print techniques and
organise actions. The Feminist Poster Project supports the do-it-yourself
idea
and welcomes your contributions!

 ??

Besides building the online archive and network, the
Feminist Poster Project intends to organise workshops on poster making and
participate in poster actions and exhibitions. Activities will be
announced on
the website.

 ??

The Feminist Poster Project is always looking for more
feminist posters, postcards and stickers in pdf. The designs can be in any
language, in any style/technique and about any feminist theme/subject. The
contributions need to be copyleft or have a copyright license that allows
people to print and reproduce them (under your conditions). Send your
contribution(s) to loseluna at yahoo.co.uk.
For detailed submission information, click here:
http://feministposterproject.wordpress.com/how-to-contribute/.
Also tips for DIY how-to-create poster-art guides and links to feminist
poster
collectives are welcome!

 ??

I hope the poster/postcard/sticker designs on the
website can be useful and inspiring for you and that the project will
continue
to grow.

 ??

Enjoy looking through the online archive! Comments are
welcome!

Oproep tot actie - bijdragen gezocht:

The
Feminist Poster Project is een nieuw initiatief om het ontwerpen, printen,
delen, verdelen, plakken en ophangen van feministische posters aan te
moedigen.
Seksistische reclame en misogyne media zien we overal rondom ons. Als we
willen
vechten tegen deze patriarchale propanganda, dan moeten we onze eigen beelden
en woorden produceren. Ik zou graag feministische posters op muren,
feministische tekens over seksistische reclames, feministische stickers op
straatlantaars
en feministische postkaarten in onze brievenbussen zien. Ik zou graag een
verandering zien in onze omgeving en in de hoofden van mensen. Ik hoop dat
The
Feminist Poster Project kan helpen om dit te bereiken.

 ??

Neem een
kijkje op: http://feministposterproject.wordpress.com

 ??

Als een
online poster network, biedt The Feminist Poster Project een ruimte aan om
feministische posters, postkaarten en stickers te tonen, uit te wisselen
en te
downloaden. Iedereen kan de posters gebruiken voor niet-commerci??le
doeleinden
zoals acties, DIY media en decoratie van je huis en iedereen kan zelf
bijdragen
opsturen. Op de website vind je ??? buiten inspirerende voorbeelden van
feministische grafische kunst ??? verschillende DIY handleidingen en links
over
hoe je zelf posters kan ontwerpen, behanglijm kan maken, druktechnieken kan
gebruiken en acties kan organiseren. The Feminist Poster Project
steunt de do-it-yourself gedachte en verwelkomt jouw bijdragen!

 ??

Naast het
bouwen van een online archief en netwerk, wil The Feminist Poster Project
workshops organiseren over posters maken en deelnemen aan posteracties en
tentoonstellingen. Activiteiten zullen aangekondigd worden op de website.

 ??

The
Feminist Poster Project is steeds op zoek naar meer feministische posters,
postkaarten
en stickers in pdf. De ontwerpen mogen in eender welke taal, eender welke
stijl/techniek en over eender welk feministische thema/onderwerp. De
bijdragen
moeten copyleft zijn of een copyrightlicensie hebben die mensen toelaat om ze
te printen en kopi??ren (onder door jou bepaalde voorwaarden). Stuur je
poster(s)/postkaart(en)/sticker(s)
naar loseluna at yahoo.co.uk. Voor meer info over hoe je kan bijdragen,
klik hier: http://feministposterproject.wordpress.com/how-to-contribute/.
Ook tips voor DIY poster handleidingen
en links naar feministische postercollectieven zijn welkom!

 ??

Ik hoop dat
de posters/postkaarten/stickers op de website bruikbaar en inspirerend kunnen
zijn en dat het project zal blijven groeien.

 ??

Amuseer
je met rond te kijken in het online archief! Commentaar
is welkom!
