[act-ma] 11/11 - 11AM - Learn about Victor Jara at Anarchist Book Fair

[Sergio Reyes]

Victor Jara's Liberation Songs Will Not Die!

Sun. Nov. 11, 11AM at the Boston Anarchist Book Fair - Simmons College. Free.

Workshop/presentation on the musical work of Chilean compositor/singer 
Victor Jara (born September 28, 1932 –  Assassinated September 16,1973 
by the capitalist dictatorship of Pinochet).


Victor Jara was 41 years old when the military dictatorship of Pinochet
 in Chile killed him while in prison. The military destroyed his hands 
and then killed him,hoping to silence his revolutionary music. They 
didn't succeed. His music and his working class revolutionary legacy 
continue alive in Chile and throughout the world.

Sergio Reyes,
 a former Chilean political prisoner, will sing his songs and placed 
them in the political and social context of Chile between 1970-1973. The
 songs will be in the original Spanish but translation of the lyrics 
will be provided.
