From Flying Brick Library blog:

Come celebrate 100 years of the uprising of the Mexican people against the tyranny of their government at your favorite neighborhood radical library, The Flying Brick! We’ll be serving Mexican food (tamales: vegan and carnivore), hanging out and participating in a discussion led by Jen Lawhorne about the revolution and Mexico’s current situation. Also, we’ll be showing Jen’s documentary “The Taking of the Media in Oaxaca” (33 min.), which follows the popular seizure of multiple media outlets during a the 2006 people’s struggle in Oaxaca. We’ll be accepting donations for the food to raise money for the Brick, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds! Also this is a sober event, so no booze pls! The Flying Brick is at 506 S. Pine St.

Film Production on Cherry Street

I followed the yellow “GO FILM” signs to 400 block of S. Cherry Street. A lot of catering goin’ on. Some guy told me that there was an Anthem commercial being shot at this residential location. He told me no movie stars (like I cared about that). I thought about starting a single person Single Payer protest right then and there, but decided not to, considering the afternoon heat. Besides, I was not sure what to believe since I have heard of another film production coming to the area.
