Call for Performers!
Calling all vaudeville vixens, burlesque beauties, rebel musicians, anarcho-clowns, and pin-up queens! On Saturday, July 26th, Unconventional Action Rochester will be hosting Burlesque for Bail, a fundraiser for individuals partaking in civil disobedience during the Republican and Democratic National Conventions. We are looking for individuals and troupes to shimmy, shake, captivate and above all, raise some change for change!
Interested in performing? Contact Rebecca at rose@riseup.net for more information. The deadline for performers is Monday, June 23rd.
What Is Unconventional Action?
Unconventional Action is an emerging network aiming to complement the work of local organizers in Denver and the Twin Cities with regional organizing throughout the rest of the country. Our goal is to build a horizontal, inclusive framework for protests that will disrupt the upcoming Democratic and Republican National Conventions. We are currently organizing meetings, propaganda, and consultas in our communities and encourage those in other regions to do the same.
We aim to organize militant direct action that manifests opposition to both the Democratic and Republican Parties. As anti-authoritarians, we oppose so-called representational politics, but even those who still believe in it must understand that we can only have leverage over our rulers by showing our own power, that we must back our demands by demonstrating that we can interfere with their business as effectively as they interfere with our lives.
