This event will include DJ’s, Live Music, Activist Speakers, & Visuals of the Tibetan Struggle.

March 10th 2008 marked the 49th anniversary of the Tibetan National Uprising. Tens of thousands of Tibetans rose up against China’s illegal invasion and occupation of their country. Despite China’s best attempts to destroy the Tibetan spirit, Tibetan resistance has continued for nearly half a century inside Tibet and in exile communities worldwide. With all eyes focused on the Olympics in China, Tibetans and supporters worldwide are protesting the Chinese government’s use of the Olympics as a political tool to legitimize its illegal occupation of Tibet.

RISE UP & TAKE ACTION:
On April 9, 2008, this very Olympic Torch will pass through San Francisco. This is the ONLY stop in North America. Help us draw attention to the worsening human rights situation inside Tibet. Help us use the Olympics spotlight to shame and embarrass the Chinese government and show them that until Tibet is free, China will never be never be accepted as a leader on the world stage.

Join Cyphertown , Giveback & Wasfia Nazreen this Sunday to stand in solidarity with Tibetans and help raise funding for the March to Tibet, a non-violent campaign to bring Tibetans exiled in India back to their homeland. March to Tibet will include international DJ’s and music, activist speeches and visuals of the Tibetan resistance at the infamous 1015 Folsom in San Francisco.

The Tibetan People’s Uprising Movement, www.tibetanuprising.org , is a global movement of Tibetans, inside and outside of Tibet, that is engaging in direct action to end China’s illegal and brutal occupation of Tibet. Through unified and strategic campaigns, the Movement seeks to seize the Olympic spotlight and shine it on China’s shameful repression inside Tibet, thereby denying China the international acceptance and approval it so fervently desires.

Giveback: Please join our online community at www.giveback.net to exchange information on the issues you are passionate about. Giveback turns inspiration into action by connecting you with organizations that are creating positive change.

Cyphertown started educating us all about the strategic opportunities of the Torch’s passing through SF last November, with the “Torch of Truth” event at Temple SF. Cyphertown is proud to be co-creating with Giveback and Wasfia Nazreen to bring you a PARTY with a PURPOSE.
