Benefit for my legal defense March 6. I’ll be reading original poetry!!!
Hi folks,
Matthis here. Just wanted to invite you all to a fundraiser being put on for me by Pricetags Entertainment and the World Can’t Wait March 6th from 6:30 to 10 at the Karma Lounge, 51 1st Ave. btwn 3rd and 4th streets in Manhattan. It will be a large gathering of local poets and musicians performing, and I’ll be reading a poem of my own too.
Please come out to support me in efforts to raise money for what will now be my April hearing date. More to follow on that when I have a date, but they’ve deployed by military lawyer to Iraq and are rescheduling for that reason. As well, they’re printed out my website and mailed it to me as evidence to be used against me.
I’m raising money to transport as many IVAW members into St. Louis to participate in this hearing/make it clear to the Army that if they prosecute IRR resisters, we’ll keep coming back, hearing after hearing, to be as radical as we please in supporting our own. Hopefully, we’ll only have to do this once.
Thank you for all your support. Hope to see you on the 6th.
Peace and Solidarity,
Matthis Chiroux
