DESCRIPTION:
STUDENTS FOR A FREE TIBET ACTION ALERT!!!

What: Thursday March 10th Tibetan Uprising Day

Who: The SoCal Tibetan Community and YOU!!!

Where: LA Federal Building, on Wilshire and Federal

Why: Because quite frankly...we need to give a damn.

How: Protest, Call In, RISE UP!!!



On March 10th 1959 tens of thousands of Tibetans were

slaughtered by China's People's Liberation Army during

a massive uprising in the capital city of Lhasa.

The Tibetan resistance movement was fed up with the

outright repression and dehumanization that was being

inflicted upon them by the Chinese Government. Since

1949 1.2 million Tibetans have died under the Chinese

occupation, 6000 Tibetan Monasteries have been

destroyed and over 120,000 Tibetans have endured the

trek over the Himalayas in the dead of winter to

escape the occupation, including His Holiness the

Dalai Lama.

Even to this day a maelstrom oppression and genocide

continues to ravage the peaceful people of Tibet.

-Tibetan Womyn are forcibly steralized under the "One

Child" policy in China.

-Tibetan culture and religion are being severely

curtailed, except in the instances in which the

Chinese government can exploit them for profit.

-The Tibetan plateau's rich flora and fauna are being

forced to the brink of extinction for the benefit of

state run Chinese companies.

These are only a mere fraction of the atrocities being

committed in Tibet. If you care about human rights,

the environment, the eradication of an indigenous

people DO SOMETHING!!!

On March 10th 2005 UCSB's chapter of Students for a

Free Tibet will be protesting at the Los Angeles

Federal Building to vehemently decry China's illegal

occupation of Tibet.

If you want to be part of this action please contact

Miguelito Mendoza at: TribalQueer@gmail.com
