Events
War Resisters League Tax Day Demo
New York City, April 13, 2005
"Let them march all they want, just so long as they continue to pay their
taxes." — Alexander Haig, U.S. Secretary of State, 1982
Friday, April 15, is Tax Day — the last day for Americans to file their
income taxes or receive an extension. That means Post Offices and Internal
Revenue Service offices all over the country will be working overtime to
make sure that Washington rakes in the dollars it needs to perpetuate its
brutal and destructive occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq and continue to
menace world peace by bringing more Middle Eastern countries under its
thumb.
The NYC War Resisters League says "Enough!" and is bringing its opposition
to Bush's war to the IRS office at 110 West 44th Street, just west of Sixth
Avenue in Manhattan, from noon to 2 p.m. on Friday.

No Canadian Bullets in Iraq! March on SNC shareholders meeting
Thursday, May 5
Meet 10am @ Metro Hall
55 John St. (outside St. Andrew Subway station)
On Thursday May 5th the shareholders of SNC-Lavalin, one of Canada's largest corporations, will be meeting in Toronto.
SNC-TEC (a subsidiary of SNC-Lavalin) has a contract to manufacture 300-500 million bullets for the U.S. military over the next few years. These are bullets that will be used in Iraq - bullets that will surely kill and wound thousands of innocent people. The US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq has already killed more than 100,000 civilians and continues to destroy Iraqi lives. Canadian support for this occupation cannot be tolerated.

What The Hack? Festival
July 28-31, 2005, Den Bosch, Netherlands
What The Hack?, a large hacker's festival, has been organized as part of a interesting series of
events held every four years in The Netherlands. The events are known as a
great opportunity to meet others working on the same things. It started
with "The Galactic Hacker Party", also known as the "International
Conference on the Alternative use of Technology, Amsterdam". Since then
the festival moved outdoors, and the next three editions were held on a
large field. The last edition was visited by nearly 3000 people. Hackers
enjoy exploring the details and capabilities of tech-systems or engage
with technology on the basis of a do-it- yourself philosophy. Contrary to
popular misconception hackers do not, by definition, break into systems.
The festival will be taking place between July 28th and 31th July, 2005
in a camp near Den Bosch, The Netherlands. Common themes are freedom of
speech, government transparency, computer insecurity, privacy, open
software, open standards & software patents and community networking.

Caliban and the Witch:
Women, the Body and Primitive Accumulation
Silvia Federici
Caliban and the Witch is a history of the body in the transition to
capitalism. Moving from the peasant revolts of the late Middle Ages to the
witch-hunts and the rise of mechanical philosophy, Silvia Federici shows that
the birth of the proletariat required a war against women, inaugurating a new
sexual pact and a new patriarchal era: the patriarchy of the wage. Firmly
rooted in the history of the persecution of the witches and the disciplining
of the body, her arguments explain why the subjugation of women was as crucial
for the formation of the world proletariat as the enclosures of the land, the
conquest and colonization of the ‘New World,’ and the slave trade.
