Finally managed to pin down the screening to May 13th 5-7pm @ the Glue
Factory. All welcome, entry is free

Friday the 13th and no spooks or serial killers, but a horror of a different
kind and you are the heroes.

In face of a community eroded, a division between them and us, systematic
stigmitisation and destabilisation of ties that bind, is an apolitcal united
front possible? This Friday the 13th we invite anyone who seeks an
alternative to join us to face these demons to dig deep into the dusty
forgotten toolkit to recover the power of our hands and feet to see what we
can begin to do together.

5-7pm
Conversation with Cathy McCormack: What can be done?
Free Film Screening

Activist Campaigner Cathy McCormack was forced to try and keep her three
children alive on welfare away back in 1982 when Britain was changed from an
industrial to a money market economy; she managed to inspire both rich and
poor who supported her to go on a journey all over the world in search of
the truth.

Now Cathy has come home, and would love to share and engage in real
conversations with people who are really interested in asking the same
questions and exploring possible solutions.

She shares her powerful film "At the Sharp End of the Knife" (52mins) about
her visit to the townships of South Africa to meet fellow activists building
the 'New' South Africa. She may be dodging the bullets, but finds energy and
inspiration in the people she meets as she makes intriguing parallels with
their lives, and her own back in Glasgow's infamous Easterhouse housing
project.

2-4pm
The screening is preceeded by a unique writer group that meets at 2pm, they
share their co-operative practice that has developed over the past 18 months
through self governance. Though they originally began in Hillhead Library,
the negotiation of use in Public spaces may mean the group will have to
migrate soon. Come discover your voice, be inspired perhaps to start your
own group to share experiences. Cathy, author of Wee Yellow butterfly,
shares her activist writing experience with the group as well.
