Come join us for the 2nd Occupy Oregon State Assembly meeting on Saturday, February 25th from 3-6pm in Eugene, Oregon! We’ll be hosting this event at our large warehouse located at the corner of 7th and Polk in downtown Eugene (1274 W. 7th Ave). There’s plenty of free parking nearby, and the building is warm and cozy with restrooms, sofas, chairs, hot coffee, etc. We’ll be having a “People United” rally and march from 11am-2pm, followed by the State Assembly meeting from 3pm-6pm, a delicious hosted dinner from 6-8pm (sliding scale $0-$5), and then dancing, live music and more from 8pm-? Those people who will be traveling to Eugene for the State Assembly meeting and would like to spend the night on Friday and/or Saturday please RSVP as soon as possible and request a homestay–we’re putting a list together of local occupiers who can host OOSA guests.

¡Viva Mexico! Movie and Discussion
Tuesday, February 21, 2012
7:00 pm until 10:00 pm
100 Willamette Hall, UO Campus
Park in Onyx parking lot/eastside of Franklin Blvd
Come watch a movie that will raise your awareness and inform our local activist community about other social movements in the world, so that we may learn and build solidarity. Discussion with Javier Lara, Northwest Treeplanters and Farmworkers United, follows.
In a journey from the mountains of southeastern Mexico to the northern border with the United States, Subcommander Marcos and the people of Mexico trace the forgotten face of a country. A celebration of the struggle for land and dignity.
After the movie, we can engage in a dialogue about the different perspectives we view or internalized the topic. At the end, I will like to link the point of the film to what PCUN does as a farm worker union in Woodburn-Oregon.
