___________________________
(note- sorry for change of date, we did not want to clash with a range of
refugee events this thursday & were also reliant on venue availability.
At this meeting we want to establish A REGULAR meeting schedule!
again sorry for inconvenience!!!)
In the wake of tragic events in the US there has already been a growing
racist backlash against middle eastern people and refugees more generally.
This makes our work even more urgent.
Refugee Action Collective (Western Suburbs) will hold an important
campaigning meeting this coming WEDNESDAY (SEPTEMBER 19) 6:30PM
THE PROPOSED AGENDA INCLUDES:
* Dispelling the myths: due to requests from RAC West activists we
will bring a range of fact sheets to the meeting to help arm
people with statistics & arguments on the issue.
* Rock For Refugees: planning for a major concert outside Maribyrnong
Detention Centre on November 10 (THIS COULD BE HUGE, BUT WE NEED
YOUR HELP!)
* A proposal for community rallies in support of refugee rights
* The vigils & hunger strike at the detention centre
* "Freedom Tour": last minute details for those on the bus
* Regular Meeting Schedule & other upcoming events
if you are in the western suburbs, be sure to get involved with RAC WEST...
if you have never come to a meeting before, this will be a great way to
start!
