Queers Against Capitalism!  Trannies for Tumultuousness!!

Bash Back! against corporate power and mindless consumerism.
Assimilationist, capitalist politics are not looking out for the interests of
queer and trans folx. Reject economic oppression and celebrate real
alternatives to hetero-normative capitalism.

On Monday August 25th of the DNC the streets of denver are going to
get queered up.
Radical queer and trans folx will crash the parties and fundraisers to
demand no business as usual.  The Democrats (straight and gay) will be
out on the town to bask in the glory of their mainstream politics and
corporate sponsorships.  We too will be out on the town.  Maybe we’ll
feel like checking out where the stonewall democrats are partying..
Or maybe we’ll visit the HRC’s corporate donors.. Where ever we end
up, we’re gonna smash their spectacle.

Show the dems what a real party looks like (one where you don’t
need $1000 to get in the door)!
Wear your pink.  Bring some black.  Wear your cutest
capitalism-smashing shoes.  Bring your cutest tumult-causing tools.
Make anti-capitalist banners, noise makers, music and whatever else
you can imagine will be useful to smash the spectacle of corporate
queerwashing.

Against Capitalism!:  interested parties will gather at 6pm at civic
center park.  Keep on the lookout for spritely elves in orange bandanas
who will be giving out top-secret information on a couple of the
choicest fundraisers and parties in Denver.  Most of these parties will
be starting after 9 or 10, so that gives folks and affinity groups a
chance to chill for a few hours, finalize their plans, dress for
success, mingle with the crowd.  Or folks can play some of the fun
direct action games we’ll have set up from 6-8 that night, to get some
last-minute training before going into action.

For Tumultuousness!: When they least expect it, at the appointed time
monday night, we’ll emerge from the shadows to reconvene in downtown
and get down and dirty. What surprises and successes will the night
hold? That depends on you and what you bring to it.
