Etcétera TV by ETCÉTERA…

Argentine & Chilean activist street art + performance group, founders of the International Errorist / Internacional Errorista.

Friday, May 04, 2007
7:00 PM - 9:00 PM
727 South Spring Street
Los Angeles, CA 

Jennifer Flores Sternad will talk about Etcétera, the Errorista, and their actions documented in this video:

*El Ganso al Poder, Etcétera’s surrealist presidential campaign for The Goose

*The Mierdazo, a 2002 protest at Argentina’s National Congress

*Etcetera’s collaborations with the human rights group H.I.J.O.S. in two escraches (acts of public denunciation that seek a form of social justice not beholden to the state’s legal and judicial institutions)

*Otra Realidad es Posible - A Comer / ! Another Reality is Possible - Let’s Eat!

with a medieval-looking army that carries giant knives and forks to storm transnational companies that don’t close on May 1^st

This will be followed by a conversation about this year’s May Day-- an opportunity to report back and discuss the actions, marches, and protests in Los Angeles and elsewhere.

Etcétera TV is in Spanish with English subtitles.
