The 15th Annual Night of Cultural Resistance:Root Y(OUR) Future!
Friday March 14, 2014Memorial Glade, UC BerkeleyDoors Open at 5pm Show Starts at 6pmFREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC!
Dear Community!We would like to invite you to join us for this year's Night of Cultural Resistance. Come enjoy free t-shirts, food, live music, vendors, and many more fun activities. Every year NoCR features live performances, art making, food, and various other activities to celebrate our resilience and honor the ways in which communities of color continue to resist and flourish within the university. NoCR is more than a concert or a show, it is an opportunity for communities on and off campus to come together and share stories, skills and resources. This is a family friendly event!This year's theme is ROOT Y(OUR) FUTURE! The theme is inspired by the 45th Anniversary of the first third world Liberation Front strike at UC Berkeley, which brought us the Ethnic Studies Department and later the Multicultural Community Center. We invite folks to not just remember twLF but to also continue living by, and creating with, the goals and values that fed the movement at the time.
Community Building Activities:
With the values of rootedness, resiliency, creativity, and survival we have created community building activities which allow folks to engage in embodying these movements. Come enjoy silk screening, seed planting, pot decorating, collective knowledge building, and Selfie Love (photo booth), and a raffle for a night filled with beautiful energies.
