Trump’s tightening his chokehold on the Cuban people. Let’s give a helping hand by watching “We were Strangers” and donating! All proceeds go towards Global Health Partners.

Set in 1932 Cuba, this 1949 film by John Huston depicts a group of revolutionaries who try to bring down their corrupt government. Critic Frank Miller noted the film is “a barely disguised indictment of U.S. foreign policy” as well as a study of “the poetry of failure” typical of Huston’s style. Stirring controversy due to its release during the Red Scare, the film was withdrawn from theaters shortly after release. Sponsored by the Elizabeth Gurley Flynn Club of the Communist Party USA and the Niebyl-Proctor Marxist Library.

Mama C’s Tiny concert honoring a living legend – Dr Tolbert Small – The People’s Doctor! 50 years of dedicated service to the communities of the Bay!

“The legendary physician, poet, social activist and humanist” — these words have been used to describe Tolbert Small. He has worked as the leading physician for the Oakland-based Black Panther Party, setting up their national sickle cell anemia foundation and the George Jackson free clinic. Pro Bono, he cared for all the rank and file party members, including all of the leadership. Huey Newton, Bobby Seale, Angela Davis, Elaine Brown, George Jackson, and David Hilliard were all his close friends, comrades, and patients. He was known as “the people’s doctor” and he is now also known as the doctor’s doctor.
