forms of oppression

wizards, facilitators, organizers, artists, musicians, mystics and direct action
planners; and especially calling affinity groups, organizations, dancers, posses,
covens, troops, and crews working for another, better world beyond capitalism
and exploitation:
We, the local organizers of May Day: Anti-capitalist Convergence & Autonomous
Festivals of Resistance need your energy, creativity, solidarity and commitment
to take another step in changing our world. . . A regional gathering of
celebration in resistance taking place from April 26th through May 1st.
We want to begin working together as soon as possible, so we are hosting a
REGIONAL CONSULTA
a time for people and groups to envision acts of resistance and festivals of
celebration; to connect with other people and groups to make them happen; and to
advise the local organizers here in the Bay Area on your ideas, needs and dreams
for this mobilization.

During this weekend, the San Francisco Bay Area also will host an anarchist
bookfair, the Radical Performance Fest, an anarchist performance cafe, and a
theory-focused anarchist conference. So come to the Bay Area to read,
perform, experience art, and learn, but also to envision, connect and work
towards May Day.
Don't wait! -- start right now.
