October 15th Solidarity - Remember the state terror raids

Members of the October 15th solidarity crew invite you to join on a Waitangi Day procession from Waitangi Park to the Mount Cook Prison Barracks to commemorate victims of Crown violence and acknowledge the continued colonisation of Aotearoa New Zealand. We will also be drawing attention to the continued prosecution of the ‘Urewera 16’ who still face a political trial on charges under the Arms Act. We will be leaving the south west corner of Waitangi Park at 4pm on 6 February. We invite you to bring tino rangatiratanga flags or other appropriate banners and placards.

The Wellington October 15 Solidarity group has been meeting since the
day after the raids and arrests last year. The raids raised many
interlocking issues, the on-going court case, the Terrorism
Suppression Act and the demands for Te Mana Motuhake o Tuhoe and Tino
Rangatiratanga. The October 15 Solidarity group has called a meeting
for anyone interested in working on these issues in 2008.

7pm Wednesday 13 February
Thistle Hall

Open to anyone interested in working on these issues. The meeting is
to discuss how we want to work on these issues, and what sort of group
