Montréal – Le spectacle « Mes Racines » de Lyna Cob permettra de venir en aide aux victimes du Tsunami

Samedi le 22 janvier prochain, Lyna Cob et ses musiciens amasseront des fonds pour les gens qui ont été victimes des récents évènements en Asie du Sud-Est.

Ce spectacle est planifié depuis longtemps mais la jeune chanteuse a décidé dernièrement d’amasser des fonds pour les victimes du Tsunami. L’argent amassé pendant la soirée sera remis à la Croix-Rouge Canadienne.

Lyna Cob sera accompagnée de musiciens et d’invités spéciaux sur la scène de La Place à Côté. L’auteure-compositeure-interprète présentera ses chansons et quelques surprises.

Lyna Cob est l’une des rares artistes qui nous proposent une véritable expérience musicale. Sans compromis ni artifice, l'auteur compositeur interprète nous offre des mélodies riches et pures, aux accents blues, country et roots. Sa musique respire la simplicité : non pas la facilité souvent proposée par les succès commerciaux, mais plutôt la spontanéité qui célèbre ce qu’il y a d’essentiel dans la vie. En français comme en anglais, Lyna sait mettre en valeur la musicalité naturelle de la langue pour évoquer avec force des images, des situations et des sentiments authentiques, qui ne provoquent pas un simple remous de surface, mais laissent chez celui qui l’écoute une impression profonde. Chacune de ses chansons crée ainsi un petit univers où la vie apparaît fraîche et renouvelée.

Où : La Place à Côté, 4571 rue Papineau (angle Mont-Royal)
Quand : Samedi le 22 janvier 2005, dès 21 heures.
Coût du billet : 10$ en pré-vente et 12$ à la porte.

IN CHRIST'S NAME WE DO THESE THINGS...

On December 16th, 2004, around 50 people gathered outside the headquarters of Alcan in Montreal. Alcan is an aluminium company who has a mining project in the region of Kashipur, India. The people of Kashipur have been explicit in their rejection of this mining project, as they see it as a direct threat to their survivial.

Le métier de l'Irak est une guerre illégale et imoral qui doit être arrêtée. Aucun jeune Américain ne devrait être forcé de combattre dans cette guerre.

We maintain that if any of these groups are honest, then they will quickly admit that they have no meaningful goals and that their strategies of education or mobilization cannot overcome the strong right wing drift of US political culture.

There is something very fishy (cultish) about all US activist groups – they will not discuss their goals, strategies or time frames. They waste billions of dollars on education that they have no reason to believe could ever achieve anything positive – and every reason to believe will cause damage to the causes that they claim to support.

It is limiting to think about the USA or national politics. It is better to not believe that the USA exists anymore. The USA is an empire of corporate, trade and, military alliances. This is what we fight and what should be addressed. We are engaged in a world war – what Chavez and many anti-globalization / Zapatista activists call the Fourth World War – 4WW. Six hundred million capitalists against the rest of the world's 6000 million – 6 billion.

What in the world are activists trying to do?

Why do they fight trade agreements that they cannot stop, that are already done deals, and that distract activists from what they should be doing??? Like trying to explain their goals, strategies and tactics... oh and some kind of time frame.

When I talk to people and explain what is going on, they express the feeling that either these USA activists work for the CIA/FBI or else they just like to feel good, pretend to be cool or feel compelled to do something – even if it is negative!
