DESCRIPTION:
Still We Ride screens at the Old Town Pub 
There will be a screening of \'Still We Ride\' at the Old Town Pub in Pasadena in the Patio which will benefit Times Up! Bike Legal Defense Fund.
 
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.

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\"

All proceeds to benefit the Times\'s Up! Bike Legal Defense Fund
