Benefit Screening of 'Still We Ride' and Potluck

*Bonus Film: 'Return of the Scorcher'

When?

October 21, 2005 at The Space Gallery in Highland Park

Coincides with NELA Critical Mass!

Anyone who rides a bike (or not) needs to see this movie. As this is not an isolated issue for New York to deal with alone, it?s a major testing ground for suppression of free speech and suppression of free assembly.

?After an entire year of illegal and barbaric treatment by the NYPD, cyclists in New York have persevered, as documented in the new documentary ?Still We Ride.? Civil libertarians and anyone concerned about basic rights to assemble, protest, celebrate, and speak have flocked to defend the New York Critical Mass. ?

-- Chris Carlsson "Critical Mass: Bicycling's Defiant Celebration"

On Friday August 27th, a few days before the start of the Republican National Convention, a massive police operation gets underway. That night a record 5000-6000 bicycle riders hit the streets for the monthly Critical Mass ride. Helicopters circle overhead and police entrap cyclist at several points, often entrapping them by wrapping large orange netting around riders. By the end of the night 264 people are arrested, marking one of the largest mass arrests in New York City's history. The arrestees, it turns out, had done nothing illegal.

The documentary Still We Ride captures the joyous atmosphere of this August ride before the arrests begin and the chaos that followed. It recounts how this ride first started in San Francisco over 10 years ago, and chronicles the police crackdown in New york and resulting court battles over the last twelve months. The movie takes on issues of civil liberties, surveillance, the power of mainstream media, and the benefits of alternative means of transportation.

'Return of the Scorcher'

This half-hour documentary looks at bike culture and bike lifestyles around the world with beautiful and inspiring scenes of bike use filmed in China, The Netherlands, Denmark, and the U.S.
