<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I think the basic idea of the play is a good one,
but I am not happy with it being Hitler who acts as the immigration official.
Lots of reasons, but here are some: it suggests that only truly evil fascists
behave like this, whereas we know that totally 'average' people get drawn into
behaving like this; I doubt very young people will know who Hitler is, and I
don't think this is a good way of teaching them; in the radical Jewish education
project I was part of, we had endless discussions about what age to teach our
kids about the Holocaust, and we came to the conclusion the answer was
'relatively old'; it trivialises the enormity of the crimes Hitler
perpetrated.</FONT></DIV>

<TD vAlign=top>hey everyone,<BR><BR>when jon sent the email about the
campaign against immigration gathering i remembered puppet play (an
adaptation of three billy goats gruff) a friend from norway
mentioned, where goats are the migrants and troll the immigration
control and asked him if he can send me a script of some sort to see if
we can use it on saturday<BR><BR>he sent the story only half an hour
ago... so not much time to get ready for it properly, but i still think
its worthwhile doing it, so what if we try to form a kids collective who
can work on it and maybe interested adults, and stage it at another
gathering, if you are up for it maybe whoever is gonna be there spread
the word on saturday, maybe put a notice up ext<BR><BR><BR>maybe the
project can evolve into forming a group meeting up regularly to discuss
related topics and make stuff and then stage it<BR><BR>just realized if
it sounds too much of a project to advertise on saturday and ppl would
like to talk about it more in detail before going for it thats totally
fine coz i only though about it as im writing now<BR><BR>here is the
summery from my friends email:<BR><BR><BR>ok, <BR><BR>so, hitler tells
the story, and says that the first forigner smells like "tea and
biscuits"<BR>the troll asks "who is stepping on my bridge", and after
the response from the english goat says "the scent is known and the
color is dear, come in to my country and make your living here"<BR
clear=all><BR>so the same also happens to the dutch goat which hitler
says smells like "green grass"<BR><BR>then the pakistani goat comes
which hitler says smells like kebab. the goat asks to cross the border
but the troll thinks "this smells like kebab & curry, I only want
[insert norwegian traditional dishes/stuff here]"<BR><BR>then they fight
and it ends with the pakistani goat lifting his wool to reveal that he's
strapped with dynamite, and he blows himself and the troll to pieces
-emel here well im not sure about blowing the poor goat, maybe the
bridge and the troll :)-so that his family busload of goats can get over
the bridge.<BR><BR>--- On <B>Thu, 6/11/09, jonathan_waters7@yahoo.co.uk

<DIV>Hi everyone,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I got the following email today from a guy at LARC so
it looks pretty positive in terms of getting a toybox there and
using some space (probably in the basement) to store creche
stuff.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Next creche is 20th June at SOAS for the Campaign Against
Immigration Controls gathering. I'll be organising it and
any volunteers would be gratefully received! Maybe we
could use it as a chance to start to develop some activities for
kids that relate to our radical politics - any ideas on
immigration related games or activities???</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Take care</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>

<DIV>Hi Jon,<BR><BR>That sounds like a great idea. I'll just run
it part the email list and<BR>get back to
you.<BR><BR>Cheers,<BR><BR>Mark<BR><A

Subject: Radical Childcare Group<BR>> Message:
Hi,<BR>><BR>> I'm a member of the newly formed radical
childcare group (currently<BR>> without a proper name) and am
writing to ask about storage space at LARC.<BR>> We'd really
like to provide LARC with a small box of communal toys
that<BR>> could be accessed by any groups using the space who
have children with<BR>> them.<BR>><BR>> We's also like
to use a small amount of storage space in the basement
to<BR>> store resources for the childcare that we provide to
various groups and<BR>> events. In the past members of
the group have organised childcare for<BR>> Feminist
Fightback conferences and meetings, helped create a kidspace
on<BR>> Raven's Ait when it was squatted during the G20 and
are organising a<BR>> creche later this month for a campaign
Against Immigration Controls<BR>> gathering at
SOAS.<BR>><BR>> Please could you get back to me about
these two ideas and let me know if I<BR>> need to submit a
more formal proposal or bring it to a LARC meeting or<BR>>
what.<BR>><BR>> Many thanks<BR>><BR>>
