Remember Katrina – Drive Out the Bush Regime!
HBO will be airing Spike Lee’s new film on Monday, 8/21, and Tuesday,
8/22, at 9pm EST. When the Levees Broke documents the horror faced by
New Orleans residents when the government left them to die after
Hurricane Katrina hit.
Organize screenings in your town: find a public venue (coffee shop,
bar, church, etc.), tell them you want to invite people to watch the
film as part of building a movement to drive out the Bush regime, and
publicize the event. Make sure to bring copies of the Call to Drive Out
the Bush Regime with you, and take the opportunity to organize for
October 5: sign people up on your contact lists, collect donations, and
discuss what the anniversary of Katrina means.
The Bush regime knew the levees wouldn’t hold. They knew 100,000 people
had no means of escape. They called Black people trying to survive
looters and turned away many who volunteered to rescue people. National
Guard fresh from Iraq were sent to New Orleans with orders to shoot to
KILL. We will NOT forget. The Bush Regime is guilty of this crime and
many others. They do not deserve one more day in office. WE must drive
them out.
