Tarek Mehanna is a young Muslim man from the Boston area who was recently
arrested by the FBI after refusing to be an informant against the Muslim
community.
Join us to celebrate the release of the *Free Tarek! Compilation CD*, an
educational fundraising project to help free our brother Tarek. The CD
consists of *more than 30 artists* who have donated their music to raise
awareness about FBI repression and related struggles against racism and
oppression. The CD has plenty of brand new material recorded specifically in
support of Tarek, and features a musically diverse array of movement artists
like *Rebel Diaz, Climbing Poetree, Hasan Salaam, Sabreena Da Witch, Evan
Greer, and Taina Asili*. CDs are $10 - 25 sliding scale and will be
available online as well as at the show!
