ARGENTINIAN WORKERS TO GIVE PRESENTATION AT ST. LAWRENCE

CANTON – A multimedia presentation called "Economic Rubble and Grass 
Roots Rebellion" will be given by members of the Argentina Autonomist 
Project on Wednesday, October 22, at 8 p.m. in the auditorium of Hepburn 
Hall (Room 218) at St. Lawrence University. The event, open to the public 
free of charge, is part of the University's celebration of Latino/a and 
Hispanic heritage.
	The purpose of the Argentina Autonomist Project is to bring news 
about events in Argentina to North America and Europe, through 
people-to-people exchanges and the Internet, and to facilitate 
non-hierarchical communication within Argentina, especially among groups 
with a minimum of resources. Recently, members of the group coordinated 
delegations of students, artists and organizers to Buenos Aires, 
Argentina, where they collaborated with unemployed workers, neighborhood 
assemblies, street artists and faculty and students at the University 
of Buenos Aires in an interactive artistic and cultural gathering to 
demand human rights in Argentina.
	The project is coordinated by Graciela Monteagudo, an Argentine 
human rights activist and community artist who has worked internationally 
with diverse communities both on her own and with Bread and Puppet 
Theater, coordinating street theater actions at protests in Buenos Aires, 
Vieques, Puerto Rico and throughout the U.S.
	For more information, contact Caribbean and Latin American Studies 
Program Coordinator Kenneth A. Gould, at 315-229- 5395 or kgould@stlawu.edu.
