Hello friends, <br><br>MESA Sin Fronteras, or Table without Borders,
invites you to a warm evening gathering this Sunday, Dec. 27th, 7pm at
encuentro 5. <br><br>Our program for Sunday will
involve good food, music, and dynamite documentaries from around the rebellious globe. We will also explore some 20th century US propaganda through cartoons
and magazine advertisements of the time. (I even heard there will be a
mini chess tournament, but that may be just a rumour...) Come join us!
Enjoy the evening and support MESA's last stretch before the
opening in January!<br>
<br>
MESA is a community club/coffeehouse developing in encuentro 5. This gathering will be a mini-fundraiser, with dinner plates at a
sliding scale donation of $7 - $12 and drinks at $2-$3.<br>
<br>Last time at MESA's... <br> We ate plentifully of Nur's
exquisite Turkish cooking, Wagner and Rafael serenaded the evening with
guitar playing and magical songs, Alistair entranced us with his
presentation of Jimi Hendrix's Histrionic Heroics, exploring Art as a Socio-Political Agent, we watched clips
from Woodstock and the Monterey Festival, as well as the stirring documentary, "Oaxaca Vive: Between
Rebellion and Utopia," while Leonid impressed our socks off (and his
own) by playing chess blindfolded and barefooted defeating opponents
brave and craven alike (I hope that says more about his playing than it
does about mine?!). <br>
<br>Where: encuentro 5 - 33 Harrison Ave, 5th Fl, Downtown Crossing/Chinatown - <a href="http://www.encuentro5.org/" target="_blank">www.encuentro5.org</a><br>When: Sunday, Dec. 27th, 7pm to late.<br>Who: you and your fellow humans (RSVP if possible)<br>
Why: because a strong community is the backbone of a strong social movement<br><br>
