There is also a show at the Portland Collective Housing (PCH House) on Saturday, April 28, with Adelit@s, Rag and Bone Men, Smile Whiskey, and DJ Dimon (of Gogol Bordello). If you're going to miss them on Saturday, hear them for free on Wednesday.

Come find out about the amazing work Sin Fronteras Portland is doing and hear some kick ass music.

Sin Fronteras Mission Statement
Sin Fronteras Portland formed to confront the growing violence, and economic disparity caused by the U.S./Mexico Border (and all national borders) and U.S. Imperialism. The movement for immigrant rights and border justice has been focused on pandering to politicians, and trying to "reform" blatantly racist laws. We do not believe white supremacy can be "reformed". Where we see the left in the United States has failed, we seek to participate in the building of popular social movements towards economic and social justice; here in the belly of the beast.

Portland Sin Fronteras is committed to bringing the popular resistance struggles of Latin America across the U.S. border into the heart of the global capitalist empire. We seek to educate, mobilize and empower people by disseminating the radical ideas and culture from these struggles. We seek to inspire and build with others, towards taking action in our lives and our communities against racism, militarization, liberalism and build our vision of another world. A world driven by needs and not profit, a world where freedom of movement is about people not global financial interests.

Our focus as a group lies in building and understanding the border and in fighting white supremacy; and our aim is to combat capitalism as a system of domination and to link the anticapitalist struggles of Latin America toour own struggles here at home.
LIBERTAD PARA TOD@S!

It would be so nice to see Cascadain banners and stencils.

The only way the Amerikan Empire will ever stop is when it is Balkanized.
