From the organizers:
“We plan to use the concert as a mobilizing and organizing tool to launch or build upon three campaigns we are currently involved with: an anti-gentrification campaign against NYU, increased financial aid and an end to unjustified tuition hikes, and also a campaign to make the decision making process more democratic and transparent. We plan on doing silk-screening, button making, providing literature and having several other interactive and educational components besides the concert.”

    Sat Feb 11, 2:00 P- Support the Golden Farm Workers!
    @ Golden Farm MAP!
    329 Church Avenue
    Brooklyn, NY  
    Workers at this Kensington institution have reported working 72 hours a week for weekly wages ranging from $350 - $450, below the legal minimum wage, and without any benefits. Working conditions are often difficult: lack of proper working equipment, exposure to extreme temperatures, heavy lifting, poor sanitation.

    Workers are suing to recover hundreds of thousands of dollars in back pay and to win a contract that will guarantee them such basic benefits as paid vacation days, sick days, protection from arbitrary dismissal, a grievance procedure, and raises.

    As a result of worker legal action and intervention by the Department of Labor and NY Attorney General, the owner recently began paying workers minimum wage. However, the workers are owed back pay and need basic benefits. But most of all workers are organizing for RESPECT, DIGNITY and FAIR AND JUST WORKING CONDITIONS.

    THE GOLDEN FARM WORKERS NEED YOUR SUPPORT: CALL MR. SONNY KIM at (718) 871-1009 and tell him you support the Golden Farm workers and their right to fair wages, improved working conditions and back pay owed.

This vibrant annual celebration reflects the radical spirit of SRLP, as well as the experimental energy of some of New York's most innovative established and emerging contemporary artists. 100 of the event's proceeds will benefit SRLP's crucial work for gender self-determination. The event is free to the public, and will include a silent auction with affordable price points beginning at $10, featuring photography, painting, drawing, sculpture, textile pieces and mixed media installations.
