An Evening of Conscience and Culture: Free the #Freeway9 and #UCLA5 It’s right to sound the alarm against fascism!
July 10, 2019, by Refuse Fascism

More Information (KPFK 90.7 FM is not responsible for external websites)

The #Freeway9 and #UCLA5 are heroes facing criminal charges for blocking the 101 Freeway in the Fall of 2017 and for disrupting the fascist Steve Mnuchin at UCLA in the Spring of 2018. These actions – for which the defendants are facing years in jail and several thousand dollars in fines – were aimed at sounding the alarm against the Trump/Pence Fascist regime, responding to a call from Refuse Fascism for a movement of millions to drive this regime from power through mass, sustained, nonviolent protest in the streets. When your government is torturing immigrants in concentration camps, gutting the rule of law, taking away the right to abortion… consolidating a fascist America… Should you do nothing?  Or should you stop business as usual?

Choose what side you’re on, or history will choose for you.

Hear from the defendants, voices of conscience and artists on the stakes of these cases, the dangerous precedents being set, why these heroes should be defended and what it means to act commensurate with the dangers to humanity posed by the Trump/Pence fascist regime.

This Nightmare Must End: The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go!
In the Name of Humanity, We REFUSE to Accept a Fascist America
