81] – According to the People's Power Assembly, Facebook illegally shut down its page which was promoting "If Trump steals the election" a protest on November 4. On the evening of Oct. 28, 2020, 14 organizers who were affiliated with the Baltimore March and Car Caravan for November 4 had their Facebook pages disabled; all were administrators or editors on various Facebook pages that endorsed the action including:  Peoples Power Assembly, Youth Against War & Racism, Prisoner’s Solidarity Committee, Women In Struggle/ Mujeres En Lucha, and Struggle La Lucha.  This action effectively locked down all of these pages denying thousands of members their constitutional rights. The Peoples Power Assembly page which has over 11,000 followers was disabled along with several other pages affiliated with the event.  Prior to this lockout, the Peoples Power Assembly’s main phone was barraged with harassing calls from Trump supporters and calls from the Department of Homeland Security connected to the Baltimore federal courthouse.

Some of the above groups including Struggle La Lucha and Women in Struggle are national and have been targeted.  The PPA in Baltimore has led protests of thousands of people since spring demanding justice against racism and police terror.  There can be no mistake that these actions are an effort to silence that movement. Sharon Black, an organizer with the Peoples Power Assembly, stated: “We take these attacks very seriously, they are a violation of our constitutional rights and are a blatant attempt to shut down organizing for the November 4th march and car caravan in opposition to the possibility of Trump stealing the upcoming election.  It is also an attempt to silence a “Peoples Mandate” which calls for jobs or income now, stimulus for workers, not billionaires; and end to racism and police terror, community control now; health care for all; no evictions, foreclosures, or utility shutoffs; safe work conditions and hazard pay; no wars or sanction, feed the people not the Pentagon.

This unconstitutional and undemocratic attack on the movement is a threat to activists and the general community everywhere, and PPA is monitoring this closely to see if these attacks become more widespread as we get closer to the election.  The group is mobilizing mass support both locally and nationally against these illegal attacks and will also seek legal remedies.  The Peoples Power Assembly is calling a press conference on Fri., Oct. 30 at noon outside of its offices in front of 2011 N. Charles Street, Baltimore 21218, rain or shine. Call 410-218-4835 or visit www.PeoplesPowerAssembly.org.

83] – The Soh Jaipil Lecture Series presents Cold War Cosmopolitanism: Period Style in 1950s Korean Cinema on Fri., Oct. 30 from 2 to 3:30 PM ET as a Virtual Event via Zoom.  RSVP at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/cold-war-cosmopolitanism-period-style-in-1950s-korean-cinema-tickets-113798668882.  South Korea in the 1950s was home to a burgeoning film culture, one of the many “Golden Age cinemas” that flourished in Asia during the postwar years. Cold War Cosmopolitanism offers a transnational cultural history of South Korean film style in this period, focusing on the works of Han Hyung-mo, director of the era’s most glamorous and popular women’s pictures, including the blockbuster "Madame Freedom" (1956). Christina Klein provides a unique approach to the study of film style, illuminating how Han’s films took shape within a “free world” network of aesthetic and material ties created by the legacies of Japanese colonialism, the construction of US military bases, the waging of the cultural Cold War, the forging of regional political alliances, and the import of popular cultures from around the world.

105] – The Trump Administration is again beating the war drums.  Most recently, the target is Iran.  Should the Trump administration initiate an act of war against Iran, consider joining us. It is a violation of U.S. law for the Trump Administration to attack a country that has not attacked us, as only Congress can declare war. The Trump administration is nevertheless beating the war drums for war against Iran and Venezuela. Should a war criminal, John Bolton, convince Trump to attack either of these countries, such a military strike would demand an immediate and unequivocal response from us to show that we will not tolerate his abuse of power.

   Let's mobilize to show that we the people will not tolerate another military adventure, which would be bound to have profound negative consequences. If a military strike against Iran or Venezuela takes place, then meet at 33rd and N. Charles St., Baltimore 21218. If the attack is before 2 PM local time, then the event will begin at 5 PM, local time. If the attack occurs after 5 PM local time, then the event will begin at 5 PM, local time, the following day. Contact Max at 410-323-1607 or mobuszewski2001 at Comcast dot net.

“One is called to live nonviolently, even if the change one works for seems impossible. It may or may not be possible to turn the US around through nonviolent revolution. But one thing favors such an attempt: the total inability of violence to change anything for the better" - Daniel Berrigan
