Calendar: Thanksgiving break at the Science Hill Tree-sit

by Auto-organization (lrdpresistance [at] riseup.net)
Will you be around over Thanksgiving break? Here is a calendar of events that will be taking place in the free-space beneath the Science Hill tree-sit. We are putting out a general request to supporters of the tree-sit to be present during this time (Wednesday the 21st to Sunday the 25th), because many students who usually frequent the site will be out of town.

Anytime is a good time to drop in for a visit. Perhaps even consider staying the night - the more of us there are, the safer we will be from the threat of police violence.
