 Living Music and Freeza presents Hip Hop to Heal the Land -Bushfire Benefit- Melbourne’s finest hip hop acts are gathering for a one off gig to raise money for the Red Cross Bushfire Appeal, ‘Healing the Land’, at the North Melbourne Meat Market on Friday 3 April. Open to all ages to attend, Heal the Land is part of National Youth Week, which runs from 28 March to 5 April. ‘Healing the Land’ is a rare opportunity to hear the best underground and emerging hip hop artists as they volunteer their talents to perform at one event. You will be treated to fresh sounds, a great crowd and help raise money to assist people affected by the February fires. Headlining ‘Healing the Land’ is a wealth of lyrical talent including the dynamic duo Mata n Must bringing their inimitable flavour; Yung Warriors and Johnny Mac & Mariki Hood inspire and have a strong following driven by support from Essendon footballer Nathan Lovett-Murray’s record label, Payback Records. The label provides a valuable voice for Aboriginal hip hop artists and builds a sense of community. Additional talent performing on the night includes Elf Transporter, Litigate MC, Class A with DJ Bogues, Julez, Ultra Violet, Indascene and Cam. Each has a story to tell and each in an incomparable style that is inspired by the hip hop culture. Why would you be anywhere else? Tickets cost only $10 per person and all proceeds go to the Red Cross Bushfire Appeal. ‘Healing the Land’ is open to all ages and is a drug and alcohol free event. The City of Melbourne and the Victorian Government proudly support the event organiser, Living Music Freeza. It consists predominantly of young people who volunteer their time and skills to gain invaluable work and life experiences.

Adam Eliot (Harvie Crumpet) and his film crew have created a funny and bittersweet tale of oddballness, friendship and humanity (sound familiar?!) with their first feature length adventure. Book your ticket now for only $20 full and $16 concession by paying online with your credit card or paypal account (see right) or call the station during business hours on 9419 8377.Synopsis: As Mary and Max chronicles Mary’s trip from adolescence to adulthood, and Max’s passage from middle to old age, it explores a bond that survives much more than the average friendship’s ups-and-downs. Mary and Max is both hilarious and poignant as it takes us on a journey that explores friendship, autism, taxidermy, psychiatry, alcoholism, where babies come from. Read a review. The Kino Cinema is at 45 Collins st. It is in the CBD and is easy to get to on your bike or public transport. The number 109 tram goes right passed and Parliament train station is a block away.

BOYCOTT APARTHEID IN ISRAEL PICKET KEVIN RUDD and THE AUSTRALIA - ISRAEL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE 11.30am - 1 pm FRIDAY, 24 APRIL The Palladium Crown Towers 8 Whiteman St, South Bank In Dec-Jan, more than 1400 Palestinians, 3/4 of them civilians, were killed when Israel conducted its 22 day war against 1.5 million Palestinians civilians living in the Gaza Strip. Israel’s war came in the Gaza Strip came on the back of Israel’s illegal and brutal two year siege of Gaza which has denied the people of Gaza adequate food, fuel, medicine and electricity. In addition, Israel continues, in contravention, of international law to carry out an illegal 40 year military occupation of Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem, engaging in Apartheid policies, while continuing to dispossess for more than 60 years the Palestinian people from their homeland. The Australia-Israel Chamber of Commerce (AICC) membership includes more than 1000 leading Australian companies across a broad range of industry sectors. It seeks to vigorously promote bilateral trade between Australia and Israel. On April 24, Australian Prime Minster, Kevin Rudd will be speaking at the AICC’s business luncheon. Demand: NO AUSTRALIAN SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL! SANCTIONS NOW! END THE SIEGE OF GAZA! END THE OCCUPATION OF PALESTINE ! Initiated by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign. Email them. Start: 17:30

Workers are being sacked, and the bosses walk away with millions. The government tries to stop angry workers from fighting back. Workers should not be forced to pay for the global capitalist crisis. 1st of May Day Global Day of Action - Rally
Friday 1 May 09 Swanston street melbourne To download full leaflet go to the website.Our work produces the capitalists‘ profits. But we work to provide for ourselves and our families. We want a living wage and a healthy workplace. Instead all around the world, many of us become sick or die because of our work. Workers in all countries are our allies. Our common enemies are the governments and capitalists who want us to compete against other workers for jobs. Together we can win. Our strength is a united working class. We must oppose and defeat capitalism. No sackings. No wage cuts. No unsafe work. No workplace closures. Guaranteed pensions and social security. No disconnections. No evictions. No repossessions. Our power is international industrial action and solidarity. Support workers’ struggle. Fight to win. Workers change the world.
