On September 3rd of 2003 Sherman Austin of
http://www.raisethefist.com must turn himself in at the MDC Federal Jail in Downtown LA. He will serve a sentence of 1 year, 3 years strict probation with restricted computer use as well as other harsh restrictions for having an "illegal link" on his site. He was also fined $2,100 retribution taxes. The brotha needs help paying off the fine, so on August 29th we'll be having a going away benefit show for him to raise funds. We'll also throw more shows for Sherman until his fines and legal expenses are paid off and any money raised over the amount needed will go to other political prisoners. We'd like anyone that wants to support Sherman and other political prisoners to attend this event or/and pass out info about his case and upcoming events for him.
Hardcore, Hip Hop, Punk, and Spoken word performances will highlight a night of ideals, ideas, music, and mayhem. Sherman Austin and his friends will share their thoughts with the crowd, with special guest Zack De La Rocha from Rage Against The Machine. The night will be a celebration - Zack, Sherman, and his friends, will reflect on their experiences with oppression, so come to relax, party, and show your solidarity with every falsely accused victim of the state. Remember, this isn't just about fantastic music, fantastic people, it's about making the world a better place. It's about resistance and fighting for the world we deserve to live in. It's about doing whatever is necessary to resist this system no matter how repressive it might be. The more we are under attack, the more we will continue to intensify our struggle, and the more we will fight until the machine is put to rest. An injury to one is an injury to all. They may have been able to lock Sherman up, but hundreds, thousands, millions more are ready to take his place and continue fighting even stronger.

How do you expect people to listen to this mind numbing crap without drugs or alcohol?
you mock the fact that there are thousands ready to take his place, let me reassure you that every f*ckin person in this nation is a slave... a slave to the system and unlike some, they don't realize it. until they lose their mtv and their bank accounts and their souls to the government they won't speak out. but rest assured that eventually amerika will take a turn and a revolution will appear.... more than thousands will share sherman's thoughts and ideas and not even realize it until it's too late.
have you recognized your a slave to the system?
...with a K...
...you might be an Idiotarian.
Now that's the sort of decadent impudent ungrateful crap we hear from kids these days.
Slave eh? You really don't deserve to have the privilege to live in a great country like this. What you really deserve is to have been born in a toilet of a country like N Korea, Iraq under Saddam or just about anywhere in Africa.
This boy should buck his ideas up, he takes his freedom for granted. It's a right that was hard won by better people than him.
AmeriKKKa is evil! All the people but anarchists are sheep being led to the slaughter by the evil KKKorporations! And when they're slaughtered, their KKKoka-KKKola-induced fat will be boiled down to maKKKe oil for the evil KKKapitalists' KKKhryslers!
Revolution is the answer! I don't have a KKKlue how we can do it, but it's the only answer!
You see josef, i am so ignorant about the true history of the world and how capitalism (feudalism) oppresses people.
See I have never read anything about:
The world bank
the international monetary fund (imf)
i also know nothing about
the G-8
the council on foriegn relations
the trilateral commission
or any other multinational organizations that
essentially are capitalist unions of corporations that are allowed to run amok throught the world
exploiting people
polluting countries
blackmailing and paying off foriegn nationals
Ya see , i 've been so programmed by watching Fox news, that i never bothered to actually learn anything.
I am a good citizen
I always listen to propaganda
and never question the government
They are good......
and i never read history books that deal with expansionist empires and imperialism.
nope
not me
I am an idiot.
Hey, you left out the Illuminati, the Rosicrucians, and the International irish Dancers Union, who all wish to control the world.
When are you gonna take responsibility for your own failures and quit blaming a system that will allow you to succeed beyond your wildest dreams if you'd only get off your whiny butt and get to work?
Can't have that, though...work is for proles. You're an idea man, aren't you?
...I actually believe in the existence of a supreme being, so what do I know? Not a whole hell of a lot!!!
I belive that capitalism is more evil that socialism, so what do I know? Not a whole hell of a lot!
The U.S. is a great country. Why else do you think people all over the world immigrate here? Its obviousle better here than in Mexico, Cuba, Honduras, Somolia, Iraq, Etc. Etc. Ungratefull little punks like you should be put in a really corrupt country and see how much you appreciate the us then after you get back.
