Confronting the suit & tie White Nationalists

Nashville Anti Racist Action about the upcoming American Renaissance Conference in Burns, Tennessee from July 28th to 30th, 2017. AmRen, as it's called, is a yearly conference that sprange from Jared Taylor's suit and tie nazi thinktank journal by the same title and is being held on state land in Tennessee and anti-racists plan to make the "white identitarians" uncomfortable to say the least. For the hour we talk about anti-racist organizing in the South, about the upcoming "Unite The Right" convergence in Charlottesville, Virginia and more. Here's the fedbook page for Nashville ARA, and here's another state-wide coalition in Tennessee, TARN.

As an aside, big ups to the crowds that overwhelmed the KKK in Charlottesville on July 8th. The Klan had to be escorted by State Police to even escape the throngs of counter-demonstrators. NPR reports 50 Klan showed up, over 1,000 counter protesters and 23 anti-racists arrested, other reports include word of police brutalizations and felony charges. Here's a fundraising page for those arrested. One resource we would like to point folks to if they're seeking to get involved with anti-racist and antifa groups over the internet, considering the honeypot and disinformation tactics being taken by the far right is Antifa checker, which vets social media sites for antifa and ARA groups and has social media presences on twitter, facebook and more.

Here's an article about last year's AmRen with a history of Jared Taylor and other organizers behind NPI, AmRen, Paleo-Conservatism, "Racial Realism," "Identitarianism," "Racialist," Sam Dickson and more buncombe.

Announces

Interview w/ Your Hosts at It's Going Down If you wanna learn more about your hosts, get a blow by blow of the anarchist radio conference that happened in Greece earlier this year, and hear some A++ trolling, you can hear an interview that we did with members of the anarchist, anti-authoritarian news platform It's Going Down! Tell us what you think by writing to us an email! Dane Powell sentencing and J20 Solidarity As many of you have probably heard already, the first of the J20 defendants was sentenced recently to 4 months of a 36 month sentence followed by 2 years of supervised probation. From a fundraising support statement: "Dane Powell is a father, veteran, water protector, and active community member, but will now forever be known as the first political prisoner of the Trump era." He is famous for pulling children and elderly folks out of the range of police chemical weapons on January 20th, and was arrested and held for days in DC lockup after having been profiled and dragged from a car on the 21st. You can read and listen to a fabulous interview that he did with the Bloc Party on It's Going Down, in which he talks about his reasons for taking a non cooperating plea deal and how he has been talking about all of this with his children, among many other topics. The interview links to other support sites and articles by co-defendants. You can also see detailed reporting on his sentencing, along with helpful context, on Unicorn Riot. Dane Powell has been sentenced, but his address is yet to be released. Once it is available, we will point folks to that information because the importance of getting mail while in prison cannot be overstated. If you would like to donate to his support fund, which will go to his commissary and support for his family while he's inside, you can visit his fundraising support site here. This also seems like a good time to mention that CrimethInc is calling for an upcoming week of solidarity with J20 defendants. From their website "July 20 marks six months from the initial actions and arrests during Donald Trump’s inauguration, and on July 27, a motion to dismiss the charges will be argued in court. The case has finally begun to receive the media attention it warrants; with this court date approaching and the cases underway, this is a crucial time for a second Week of Solidarity. Send reportbacks, photographs, and inquiries to [email protected]." More information can be had at crimethinc.com. NC Defend J20 benefit events As relates to the recent shout out for fund and awareness raising solidarity events for the upcoming week of Solidarity from July 20th-27th, 2017, we'd like to highlight a few North Carolina events:

July 20th, at Firestorm in Asheville, there will be a free showing of TROUBLE #4, from subMedia, about repression and movement building as well as #2 of Channel (A)!, a collection of anarchist representations in popular media. This starts at 6:30pm.

On July 22nd, there'll be a benefit concert in Asheville starting at 6pm with a bbq and bake sale and suggested donations. Bands include: Mutual Jerk (from Atlanta), Poor Excuse, Clyde Conwell & a SECRET SPECIAL GUEST (I really hope it's performers from "Now Thats' What I Call Kerkhophony Vol 1). Look for the address for this show on http://ncj20defense.com soon.

On July 25th at the Nightlight in Chapel Hill, NC, at 9pm there'll be benefit concert for the J20 defendants. Bands include: Institute, Drugecharge, Decoy & Dead On The Vine.

More on events around the world for the week of solidarity can be found at http://defendj20resistance.org/ and a good writeup with updates on the subject is up from crimethinc. Denver Fundraising From Denver, there's a call out for fundraising for folks who caught charges counter-demonstrating the Islamophobic antics of "ACT for America" last month. They have some quite humorous shirts, particularly for our insurrectionary herbalists of the Laurel Luddite variety, as a fundraiser on a fundly page.

Update from Keith "Comrade Malik" Washington Another update from Keith "Malik" Washington, a spokespersyn for the End Prison Slavery in Texas Movement: Prisoners located in Lovelady, Texas, have filed their § 1983 Federal Civil Complaint in the Eastern District of Texas – Lufkin Division. TDCJ has the largest state prison system in the United States. Most of the 110 prison units are not air conditioned, and toxic water supplies are becoming a pervasive and systemic problem. At Eastham Unit, multiple prisoners have been diagnosed with h. pylori disease from the water. Due to the Heat Index, especially in the summer, prisoners must drink this contaminated water that's causing h. pylori. The prison store known as the commissary sells us “hot pots” which heat water but don't boil it. If we alter our Hot Pots in order to make them boil, they get confiscated and we are given a disciplinary case for contraband. This issue raises 8th Amendment concerns, and the US Supreme Court has held that unsafe conditions that pose an unreasonable risk of serious dangers to a prisoner's future health. Several prisoners have been diagnosed with h. pylori disease which destroys the lining of the stomach. There is no known cure. Malik, in a recent statement from which we're selectively quoting, and which is available at https://comrademalik.com/, goes on to compare the governments utter disregard for the prison population in Texas Department of Correction's jurisdiction, mainly made up of poor white, black, native, latinx and other marginalized peoples, to that of the administration in Flint, Michigan. In particular, the sick and the elderly are endangered by this while wards of the state in what may rightly be considered cruel but sadly maybe not so unusual circusmstances. The main prisoner involved in the case is a jailhouse lawyer named William Wells and the case can be found as: William Wells et al. Vs Bryan Collier et al. Cause #9:17-cv-80 For those of you who don't know, Bryan Collier is the Executive Director of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ). If you'd like to learn more, send Malik some mail at: Keith 'Comrade Malik' Washington, TDC# 1487958, 2665 Prison Road #1, Lovelady, TX 75851 And check out his writing on the support fedbook page or his support site. Houston Anarchist Bookfair Also related to Texas, we'd also like to inform folks that submission periods have begun for the Houston Anarchist Bookfair! The bookfair will be taking place on Sunday, September 24, 2017 From their fundraising page: "Houston Anarchist Black Cross will host a one-day convergence to network, grow, and celebrate anarchist and anti-authoritarian projects in Texas and the surrounding region, and we need help to make it happen! This gathering will be entirely free as part of our commitment to accessibility, and because of this we need lots of help with funding from those who can support us. The event itself will be free, we will be providing lots of services at the bookfair for free with the help of volunteers, it is free to table or present a workshop, and we want to be able to help as many folks from out of town as possible with their travel expenses and housing needs. This event will have books, publishers, distros, zinesters, exciting workshops, and discussion to celebrate and expand our southern radical communities of resistance! Money raised will go towards booking and renting our space, bringing people in from out of town, feeding people who attend the bookfair, buying supplies to set up the space, and funding accessibility for the space. If you're planning on coming to the bookfair, or coming to table or present a workshop, or are generally excited about this radical southern space happening, and you can help us raise the funds to make this event happen and keep it free, we need your help! Solidarity, Feed The Possums, All that good stuff :) -Houston ABC" This'll be the first anarchist bookfair in Houston since 2011! If you'd like to participate in the bookfair more directly, they've opened up the submissions period for vendors and presenters, and they've put up a page for reaching out if you have housing or accessibility needs for the bookfair. Those links and more can be found at the events website, or reach the organizers at [email protected]! Playlist

Leicester hammer Fleetwood to reach Carabao Cup third round

Christian Fuchs and Rachid Ghezzal scored stunning goals as Leicester eased to victory against League One Fleetwood in the Carabao Cup second round.

Fuchs opened the scoring with a half-volley from 25 yards.

Algeria winger Ghezzal – on his first start for Leicester – bent a long-range shot into the top corner for the Foxes’ fourth at the King Power Stadium.

Vicente Iborra and Kelechi Iheanacho were also on the scoresheet.

Fuchs turned provider for Leicester’s second as his cross found the unmarked Iborr, who scored with a powerful header from six yards.

Iheanacho struck 10 seconds after the break when he stroked home Marc Albrighton’s long pass from close range.

Leicester made eight changes to the side that beat Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday, with goalkeeper Danny Ward – a £12.5m summer signing from Liverpool – making his debut.

The scoreline could have been worse for Joey Barton’s Fleetwood, who made 11 changes, with Iheanacho hitting the post twice in the first half.

Thark

I’m a great fan of the 1920s. Ok, I’m not old enough to remember them but thanks to books like the Jeeves and Wooster series, I do feel that I know the era pretty well. I’m also a fan of farce as a theatrical genre and a combination of both seemed too good to miss. So off I toottled to the Drayton Arms to see a performance of Ben Travers’ quintessentially English farce Thark.

At the home of Sir Hector Benbow (Mathijs Swarte) his butler Hook (Daniel Casper) has just received some news. He has become a father – admittedly of a girl but he can cope with that. As he tries to head off to go and see his wife and child, he gives instructions to Warner (Sophia Lorenti) the maid as to what to do when a female visitor arrives. Sir Hector is out at the races with his nephew Ronny (Robin Blell) while his wife Lady Benbow (Charlotte Vassell) is away, so it is up to the servants to ensure that Sir Hector’s guest gets the right message and meets him for a liaison later that event. Unfortunately, nobody knows the girl’s name – Cherry Buck (Isabella Hayward) – and so the message is passed not only to Cherry but also to Mrs Frush (Ellie Gill) who, along with her son Lionel (Alexander Hopwood) are trying to get hold of Sir Hector and complain about the house he has recently sold them. The house – Thark by name – was formerly the property of Sir Hector’s ward, and Ronny’s girlfriend, Kitty (Natalla Lewis), and is, much to Mrs Frush’s horror haunted. Sir Hector and his entourage decide to set off to Thark to debunk the whole ghost nonsense and secure the sale.

Can Mrs Frush be placated? Will Sir Hector manage to get his liaison dangereuse without his wife finding out? Will Ronny and Kitty’s romance be able to survive the traumers they are about to face? Just how dodgy is Mrs Jones, the Housekeeper at Thark and who is the mysterious Mr Whittle (Kieran Slade) hanging round the property. Finally, will Hook get to see his baby daughter before the ghostly shenanigans really get into their stride?

A good farce requires various elements, the most important of which are doors. People need to come in and go out in rapid succession, preferably through different doors, and Granville Saxton’s set does that very well. Not only does it have lots of doors, which slam effectively, but the furniture is very in keeping with the period and the changeover in act II from dining room to bedroom is brilliantly done with both rooms looking really good. Matching the set are the really splendid costumes by Bryony J Thompson. They all looked very period appropriate with the ladies, particularly Isabella Hayward’s dinner dress, looking particularly stunning.

The story itself is a pretty standard farce with messages going to the wrong people and being misinterpreted, very stupid men believing they can get away with anything, and general mayhem. It is very much of the period. Women are not really respected that much – though they are definitely feared – and that attitude is perfectly summed up by Hook’s reaction to the news he has a new daughter. But, overall, it still works. You can’t sit there and compare the actions of these people with what is acceptable today, but if you put yourself back in the time of the flapper and the playboy, it makes sense.

Director Matthew Parker has assembled a very strong cast with a couple of real stand-out performers. Robin Blell was one. An actor with perfect comic timing and a wonderfully expressive face and body that transmits so much across the footlights, Robin was brilliant as young Ronny. Equally I really liked Isabella Hayward’s Cherry Buck. Yes, the character is a rather a stereotypical good time girl that pretends she is all virtuous but Isabella makes her more a real three dimensional person able to hold her own with any of her, so called, social betters.

Overall, Thark was thoroughly enjoyable. My one criticism was the ending, which seemed to just turn up, taking some of the audience by surprise. However any show that includes a Beyoncé dance break, certainly has something going for it. The pace is fast and the highly talented cast do a wonderful job of keeping everything moving smoothly. There are some really deft touches in the action that keep the audience on their toes – keep an eye on the whisky glasses and soda syphon in Act I – and ensures the attention never flags. All in all, if you fancy a break from worrying about Christmas, treat yourself and the family to a trip to Thark and sit back, relax and enjoy a fun and highly entertaining evening out.

Review by terry Eastham

“Ghosts – bunkum! Have you ever met anyone who’s seen a ghost?” “No; but I’ve never met anyone who hasn’t met someone who has…” London, 1927. The rebellious twenties are roaring right outside Sir Hector Benbow’s Mayfair window. All he wants to do is to take Cherry, a ‘good looker’, out for a spot of dinner. His saucy liaison is scuppered when Lady Benbow and his ward Kitty arrive home unexpectedly. What’s more, there are reports that Thark – the family home – is haunted! Hector, his plucky nephew Ronny, and the rest of the family set out to investigate. Will Thark live up to its spine-chilling reputation?

Fast-paced, fruity and full of flappers, Ben Travers’ Thark is a hilarious classic British farce combining sparkling witticisms and bold physical comedy with glamour, naughty romps and a hint of gothic spookery!

This sparkling new production is directed by Off West End Award winning director Matthew Parker.

Cast: Robin Blell, Daniel Caspar, Ellie Gill, Alexander Hopwood, Natalia Lewis, Sophia Lorenti, Kieran Slade, Mathijs Swarte, Charlotte Vassell and Isabella Hayward.
