"Power of Nightmares" (Part 2 of 3)
1 hour.

The second of three 1 hour parts to the BBC documentary goes further into the story of the parallel historyand development of the U.S. neo-con movement and their middle east cousins, the Islamic fundamentalist movement, and how they both depend on fear and intimidation to maintain their political power.

"Tremendously important information. This 3-part series is remarkable in its scope and depth...and goes into the fascibnating and chilling details that show how the neo-cons actually fueled terrorism and oppressed citizens in the U.S. and U.K. with false charges(well over 600). This is very well-researched, not an opinion piece...
directly addresses many myths, fro how Russia fell (with neo-cons and Islamic fundamentalists both taking credit for it), to how charges against citizens were trumped up in fewar-driven witch hunt. It concludes with how blatantly people are being arrested because they might commit a crime, and the consequences of this approach to society." - from a review by Robert Yourell, San Diego 3/1/08

Connecticut Hip Hop Gran Prix!!!


When: Sat, May 24, 7:00:pm - 10:00:pm
Where: Wrench in the Works

Jewett City city has been the center of a hip-hop scene influenced by Hardcore, Punk, and Metal culture. Now, Willimantic will get to hear it. Jewett City MC's NME, Stryfe, and Skobie Won will be performing on the Wrench stage (or floor) rather with Bishop of Willimantic's own Eubonics. NME has spent ten years in the CT hip-hop game. Skobie Won has been notable as a producer for other Jewett City acts and as half of sexual healing--now he's working on a solo album. Rep locals. Rep the real.

Sliding Scale Donations (no one refused for lack of funds)

The Wrench in the Works Collective operates a member-run coffeehouse and social justice center at 861 Main St in Willimantic, CT. The Wrench is a space for workshops, meetings, performances, or just hanging out with a cup of fair-trade coffee or tea and browsing our small collection of progressive and radical books, 'zines and other media. Speaking of books... we have a wish list!
