Rock Out Columbus-This Thursday, Oct 5h

In an effort to spread awareness and support for the message "No Holidays For Murderers!" and in the spirit of transforming the Columbus Day holiday (the Convoy of Conquest) into something to truly celebrate and honor all cultures & diversity, come to the second annual Rock Out Columbus Day!

By "Rocking Out" the Columbus day holiday we are talking about fighting with music and enlightenment to end this holiday celebrating the Indian killer, Christopher Columbus. Extensive info on this movement in Denver can be found at www.transformcolumbusday.org or www.coloradoaim.org.

This year we will revive the show last year that brought so many together in the spirit of ending this savage, oppressive exoneration of a genocidal "hero".

Come see:
Movies!
Music!
Spoken Word!

...all from Denver's finest socially conscious artists: movies from Argus Fest! Music from Dressed As Black, Mano and Juliah! Spoken Word from Lil Milagro, Cele Spink, and Sommer McGuire!
