SUMMARY:ABERDEEN DEMO - End Imperialism Now!
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Saturday 21 June 12 noon at St Nicholas Square and protest the imperialist drive to war.\nCome out to voice your outrage at the latest transgression of international law and total contempt for human rights by the imperialist war machine. \nMeantime the genocidal state of Israel continues with daily massacres of Palestinian aid seekers in Gaza. \nThe genocide continues in the face of the silence and complicity of our government providing surveillance planes from Akrotiri and sustaining arm sales to the genocidal state. \nIf complicity with genocide does not represent you\, please join us to voice your outrage and be on the right side of history. \nTogether we stand to oppose genocide\, injustice and oppression of all people. Free all nations from imperialist occupation and aggression. \nSee you on Saturday.

SUMMARY:First Picture Documentary Film Screening Tour
DESCRIPTION:Screenings and Q&A with director in Glasgow\, Edinburgh\, Perth\, Aberdeen\, Forres and Ardrishaig. \nWelcome to the FIRST PICTURE DOCUMENTARY FILM SCREENING event. \nThis is a national tour throughout Scotland with the following dates and locations: \n\nFriday\, 18th April @7pm – CCA\, Glasgow.\nWednesday\, 23rd April @ 7pm – St Augustines\, Edinburgh\nThursday\, 24th April @ 7pm – ESOL\, Perth\nTuesday\, 29th April @7pm – Quaker Meeting Hall\, Aberdeen\nWednesday\, 30th April @ 7pm – The Courthroom\, Forres\nTuesday\, 6th May @ 6pm – Ardrishaig Village Hall\, Ardrishaig\n\nPalestinian Prisoner’s Day is marked each year on the 17th of April\, and the situation for prisoners in Israel’s torture jails has never been more urgent\, as we see systematic physical\, sexual & emotional abuse as well as the rising death toll of detainees\, including the first child. \nThis year\, Scottish PSC will screen the documentary ‘First Picture’ (2006) by Akram Al-Ashqar\, who is doing his PhD in film at the University of Glasgow\, at locations across Scotland. Akram will join us for Q&A sessions following the film. \nFirst Picture (2006) tells the story of a Palestinian child born in one of the Israeli Occupations prisons. He is released without his mother after nearly 3 years in prison. Set in Tulkarm Camp for Palestinian refugees\, the film follows this child’s life as he is reunited with the rest of his family and formally imprisoned friends of his mother. \nAt the time of writing\, there are 9500 political prisoners\, including 350 child prisoners. Walid Ahmad was one of those children and was killed in March of this year\, following 6 months of detention without charge. He was just 17 years old. His body\, as is policy of the occupying forces\, has been withheld from his family. \nJoin us as we discuss the film\, the current situation for Palestinian prisoners & what we can do in Scotland to build effective solidarity. \nBook your ticket here \n

SUMMARY:Film screening: The World Against Apartheid
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a film night and discussion – The World Against Apartheid – on April 14th\nWe’ll explore the power of the sporting boycott against South Africa’s apartheid regime and how international solidarity helped bring it down. The screening will be followed by a panel discussion and a banner/placard-making session. \nIn the lead-up to the protest against an Israeli representative at the World Bowls Indoor Championships in Aberdeen (April 20)\, we draw inspiration from history. Just as sports were used to isolate apartheid South Africa\, today we respond to the Palestinian call to boycott Israel until it ends its illegal occupation. \nNOTE: The venue for the event is the Aberdeen Trades Union Council. The building can be accessed via 2 entrances: The Adelphi which is just off Union Street\, and Shiprow; \n– To access via Adelphi: from Union Street\, walk down Adelphi to near the bottom of the street\, go through the tunnel on the left\, and down the steps\, then turn around to your right for ATUC. \n– To access via Shiprow: there is a vehicle entrance to the immediate right of the Maritime Museum. Once you reach the car park\, ATUC is on your left\, to the left of the steps.
