Hopefully our colleagues and comrade will take the opportunity to
screen the film beforehand, more specifically on the 16th of August the
national day or action called by the Marikana support Campaign. On this
day scores if not hundreds of screenings of the film will take
place across South Africa, at least 40 of these screenings will be
followed by pickets of local police stations. Internationally, numerous
pickets of South African embassies are being held. If you are living
outside of Africa and want to know more when and where please contact
Greg <[email protected]>. We are now attempting to encourage our fellow
African's to do likewise, or alternatively simply hold a screening
to commemorate the massacre.
We are happy to provide a link and password for downloadable copy of the
film Miners Shot Down for all those living outside South Africa who plan
to hold screenings and or hold pickets.
Yours in struggle
Rehad Desai
