Events from Zaps

STUDENT STRIKE - In response to program cuts and fee hikes in California's school system, students and education activists there have called for a Strike and Day of Action in Defense of Public Education on March 4.

WOMEN'S STRIKE - International Women's Day, March 8, has been a day of protest, education, and direct action to redress the ongoing oppression of women who do two-thirds of all the world's work—most of it without pay or formal benefits and often in slave conditions.

RNC-8 - Supporters of the eight activists (the RNC-8) on trial for protesting during the 2008 Republican National Convention have called for a National Day of Solidarity on March 23, when local groups can distribute information, hold informational events, or raise legal support funds for those facing draconian fines and prison terms for non-violent political actions.
