On September 3rd of 2003 Sherman Austin of http:\/\/www.raisethefist.com<\/a>

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.

Vengan a relajarse, divertirse, y a demostrar su apoyo a todos los que an
