SUMMARY:Festival of Resistance (Day 6 – Week of Action\, Stop the Arms Fa
 ir 2019)
DESCRIPTION:&nbsp\;\n\n[caption id="attachment_4024" align="aligncenter" wi
 dth="635"] A space to bring our struggles together\, to dance\, and to lea
 rn.[/caption]\nWhy Take Action?\n1 in 25 people in Newham are homeless. In
 stead of providing public housing\, investing in public healthcare\, and p
 rotecting workers rights\, the government prefers to support an industry o
 f death. One of the world’s largest arms fairs\, DSEI\, is returning to 
 our doorstep (at the ExCel) and we’ll be there to resist!\n\nState offic
 ials from all over the world will be welcomed to shop for weapons\, techno
 logies and equipment used to repress\, kill and torture. Instead of fighti
 ng rising inequality\, the government is welcoming and promoting terror.\n
 \nThis is where those who profit from war and repression do business. This
  is where we can stop them. This is where we will shut it down. (https://w
 ww.youtube.com/watch?v=7Fi3Z22K3KI)\n\nIn the face of such grave injustice
 \, we will bring joyful resistance. Saturday 7th September will be a space
  to bring our struggles together\, to dance\, and to learn. We’ll be she
 dding light on issues of local democracy and international solidarity.\nWh
 at's Happening?\nAlongside performances\, fun activities for children and 
 youth\, and lots of yummy food\, there will be workshops\, panels\, and op
 portunities to learn about specific topics (like renters rights)\, to lear
 ning how to investigate a dodgy-looking company and organise collectively.
 \n\nJoin us in the evening for dinner and an outdoor film screening of Nae
  Pasaran: a film showcasing the powerful solidarity between workers in Sco
 tland with the people of Chile under Pinochet in the 1970s. We’ll end th
 e night with an amazing panel discussing how we can learn from this powerf
 ul resistance and solidarity in our fight against the arms trade today. (F

 \, and this is where we’ll stop it.\nImportant Information\nHosted by Lo
