Anti-Racist Action LA (People Against Racist Terror/PART) is organizing a counter-demonstration. The location will be made known at noon on Sat. 11/16. We will email out the location

A white power music show has been scheduled for Saturday, November 16 by the local chapter of the "Imperial Klans of America." The exact location is being held secret by the Klan, but is described as being "40 miles east of Orange County" which would presumably put it somewhere in the Riverside/San Bernardino area. Anti-Racist Action LA (People Against Racist Terror/PART) is organizing a counter-demonstration. The location will be made known
at noon on Sat. 11/16. We will email out the location and also post it on our hot-line, 310-495-0299. Please get in touch if you want to oppose this show and help prevent the kind of racist violence that usually follows these neo-nazi events. Call us now at the above number, or email us at antiracistaction_la@yahoo.com for more information.

The Klan website is www.kkkcalifornia.org (but don't go there except anonymously unless you want kkkookies on your computer). The "Grand Dragon"'s voice mail is 714-214-0577 (Chris Johnson) -- they're out of PO Box 9731 Newport Beach CA 92658, and are co-sponsoring the show along with Resistance Records (the music business of the National Alliance, bankrolled by the late William Pierce,
author of the notorious "Turner Diaries"), Panzerfaust
Records and White Rider Records (described as a fully-owned subsidiary of the KKK). They claim that the "venue management will allow us to hold further shows at this establishment." They will serve alcohol but no food (a recipe for drunken boneheads
to vent their racism on scapegoats) and say the show is a benefit for their National Office in Kentucky.

There will be an ARA planning meeting at noon on 11/16. Call for more information. Incidentally there is a benefit show for ARA Oceanside the night before at Fais Do-Do on West Adams, in LA, starting at 7:00. Check it out!
