SUMMARY:Russian Revolution 100 Year Anniversary Forum
DESCRIPTION:The October Revolution of 1917 showed what working class people can do when they organize to change society in their own interest. One hundred years later\, there are still so many lessons to learn from the millions who fought to put an end to war\, poverty\, and oppression in that great struggle. Join us to discuss their example and what it means for today’s world. \nWe will be meeting in the Language Building\, room #310.

SUMMARY:Resource Center Presents: Voices of the DREAMers
DESCRIPTION:On September 5\, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced the federal government was ending the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)\, a program that allowed undocumented immigrants who entered the United States before the age of 16\, and met other requirements\, temporary work authorization and protection from deportation for a renewable two-year period. \nAccording to the Williams Institute\, there are over 75\,000 LGBTQ DREAMers\, named for the unsuccessful 2011 legislative effort which would have made the DACA provisions law. An estimated 36\,000 LGBTQ DREAMers have used DACA’s provisions to pursue schooling and build a life in this country–a life that is now threatened by the removal of the protections. \nJoin Resource Center and LULAC\, the League of United Latin-American Citizens\, for a special edition of “Resource Center Presents: Voices of the DREAMers\,” on Wednesday\, October 18. Hear the stories of people who have used DACA and its protections\, as well as from an immigration attorney to sort out the legal issues surrounding the DREAMers. The panel will be moderated by the Center’s communications and advocacy manager Rafael McDonnell. \nThis is a FREE event but seating is limited. Please reserve your seat today.

SUMMARY:Real Aid\, Right Now: Mobilize for Hurricane Recovery Justice
DESCRIPTION:Over the last 2 months\, hundreds of thousands of Americans have had their lives ripped apart by Hurricanes Harvey\, Irma\, and Maria.  \nThe Trump Administration has failed to provide the relief our people need and instead has met these tragic events with inefficiency\, indifference\, and negligence. \nBy standing united\, we will use our combined voices to demand the Trump Administration: \n– cancel any debt accrued by these events\n– release money from the hands of FEMA and HUD and into the hands of the people \nJoin us as we march from the United States Capitol to the White House to demand a fair and swift response for vulnerable communities hit by these disasters. \nPeople are dying every day and the utter devastation that entire communities are in from across all disaster sites requires an immediate and appropriate response. We demand #RealAidRightNow.

SUMMARY:Justice for Palestine is a Universal Issue
DESCRIPTION:On Monday\, October 16\, at 7:00 pm\, the American Jewish Council in Dallas will be hosting a panel titled\, “U.S. Support for Israel as a Bipartisan Issue.” We will be gathering to bring attention to the damage of the increasing support for the Israeli state that silences\, oppresses\, and subjects Palestine and its people to countless human rights violations. U.S. support for Israel is support for an open-air prison\, support for the genocide of the Palestinian people\, and silencing the voices of dissenting Jewish and Israeli communities who vehemently oppose the occupation of Palestinian land and the support U.S. offers to Israel. \nThis event is co-organized by North Texas Democratic Socialists of America (DSA)\, Freedom Road Socialist Organization (FRSO)\, North Texas Solidarity\, Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL)\, Green Party of Collin County\, and the International Socialist Organization (ISO). \nThe American Jewish Council has\, historically\, supported a zionist Israeli state without regard to the Palestinian people and communities that are being forcefully displaced\, exterminated\, and imprisoned for their existence. AJC actively fights dissenting opinions on the Israeli occupation of Palestinian land\, and regularly attacks the Palestinian-led movement for liberation\, Boycott\, Divestment\, Sanctions (BDS). The speakers will be Representative Pete Sessions (R) Representative Marc Veasey (D).  \nRep. Pete Sessions has commitment to an unbreakable U.S.-Israel bond and opposes Arms Treaty that limits gun trade to Israel.\n(http://www.thepoliticalguide.com/Profiles/House/Texas/Pete_Sessions/Views/Israel/) \nRep. Marc Veasey has expressed support for military aid and contributions to Israel\, going as far as to praise stealth F-35 fighter jets\, capable of launching ground attacks that will inevitably kill Palestinian citizens unbiasedly.

SUMMARY:GreenCast\, Episode Two: The BDS Movement
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this live\, streaming event at https://www.crowdcast.io/e/greencast-episode-two \nABOUT EPISODE TWO:  Co-Hosted by the Denton ISO (International Socialist Organization)\, our second episode turns to the BDS Movement–Boycott\, Divest\, Sanction. Many broad left movements and organizations have endorsed the BDS Movement\, including the Democratic Socialists of America and the International Socialist Organization. In 2015\, for example\, more than 1\,000 black activists\,artists\, scholars\, politicians\, and movement leaders like Angela Davis and Cornell West issued a statement proclaiming their “solidarity with the Palestinian struggle and commitment to the liberation of Palestine’s land and people. In this episode\, we ask what do North Texans need to know about the BDS Movement? What’s at stake?  \nABOUT GREENCAST:\nA new\, bi-weekly program about people\, programs\, and issues aligned with the Green Party’s values like Social\, Economic\, and Environmental Justice. This\, the first episode of Green Cast\, is hosted by the Collin County Greens in North Texas. We invite local groups across North Texas to host future episodes. If you are a Green interested in participating in this effort\, please let us know.

SUMMARY:Beat Back Trumpcare! Rally at Ted Cruz’s Office
DESCRIPTION:As a deadline approaches for the Senate to advance Trumpcare with 51 votes\, the horror show that is ACA Repeal has returned. “Graham-Cassidy” is the WORST version of Trumpcare yet. \nIf passed\, Trumpcare will destabilize the insurance market and deny 32 million Americans health insurance by targeting children\, seniors\, and people with disabilities.  \nIt will steal from the poor and middle class to give to the rich.  \nIt will wash people with preexisting conditions out of the market and into bankruptcy.  \nIt will cap coverage for those who most need it when they most need and remove any accountability for state funds coming from taxpayer dollars. \nJoin us in front of Ted Cruz’s Houston office to stand up for Americans and fight back against this horror show of a healthcare policy.  \nHear the voices of those affected by these policies and see a better vision for healthcare in America than this destructive\, immoral policy. \nIndivisible Houston\nPantsuit Republic\nYoung Invincibles\nHealthcare for All Texas\nTexas Democratic Party\nTexas Organizing Project

SUMMARY:Tell Cruz and Cornyn NO to ZombieCare TrumpCare!
DESCRIPTION:LET’S TELL SENS. CORNYN AND CRUZ NO TO ZOMBIECare!!\nJOIN US SUNDAY MORNING FOR  A PUBLIC SQUARE TOWN HALL! \nZombiecare is back! Once again we are DAYS away from the Senate voting to kick millions of people off their health care. Sens. Cornyn and Cruz are key players in the plan to repeal the Affordable Care Act. This will be disastrous for many thousands of Texas children\, young mothers\, people with disabilities\, and seniors.  \nThis Sunday morning Senators Cornyn and Cruz will be at the Texas Tribune Festival at 9 a.m. This is our best chance to say NO to their ZOMBIECARE with our collective voices\, our bodies and our people power. \nSens. Cornyn and Cruz are so reckless in their drive to kill health care that they plan to vote without any analysis by the Congressional Budget Office that shows how many TENS OF MILLIONS will lose coverage. \nWe’re not going to let them vote without hearing the loud voices of Texans! \nThis is our LAST CHANCE to show the Senate what we’re made of – to tell them NO to gutting Medicaid\, NO repeal of the ACA\, and NO to Trumpcare.  \nIF EVER THERE WERE A NEED TO SHOW UP IN PERSON\, SUNDAY IS IT! \nWHAT TO BRING:\nWrite a personal letter about how the ACA or Medicaid has impacted your life. Include your concerns about Trumpcare\, the destruction of Medicaid\, removal of protections for pre-existing conditions–anything that this bill attacks. Bring your letter to read out loud or simply hand it in for us to deliver to the senators’ offices. You don’t have to speak if you don’t want to\, supporting others is just as important. Bring your friends!!! Bring your children and babies!!!! Get the word out. We need BIG NUMBERS in attendance!! (Also\, bring bottled water\, sunscreen and bug spray.) Signs are welcome\, and any megaphones will be helpful! \nSuggested slogans: “TrumpCare: Back from the dead and coming for you”\n“Kill the bill!”\n“Zombiecare! DON’T YOU DARE! \nWHEN:\nSunday\, September 24 @ 8:30 am \nWHERE:\nCorner of Guadalupe and W. 24th (near Hogg Auditorium\, where the program takes place) \nPARKING INFO:\nParking info from Texas Tribune Festival’s website:\nhttps://festival.texastribune.org/festival/2011/parking/\nParking around campus will be challenging\, especially since the Texas Tribune Festival is happening.
