When: July 20 and August 3, 1-3PM
Where: Christie Pits Park, 750 Bloor St W

Through our studies of Philippine Society, we grow closer to our roots and understand our revolutionary history as Filipino People.

Jul 19, 2025 - End the Genocide

When: July 19th, 3pm
Where: Spadina and Queen's Quay

As Gaza faces relentless US-Zionist bombardment and genocide, the Zionist state's violent escalation threatens our entire region. From Palestine to Lebanon to Syria to Yemen and Iran, our people are suffering under the imperial powers determined to maintain their domination of our lands.

This genocide is not only carried out with bombs and military power, but through the weaponization of so-called "aid." The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), a US-Israeli-backed private scheme, masquerades as relief while creating militarized distribution zones guarded by tanks and snipers.

Jul 18, 2025 - 100 Years of Working Class Life

When: Friday July 18th, 7pm
Where: 31 Wellesley St E

Between 1917 and 1936 the Governments of Ontario and Canada produced hundreds of films on various subjects like farming techniques, industrial technology, vacations for the wealthy and "appropriate" workplace behaviour, among others. The Ontario Motion Picture Bureau, (OMPB) made educational films for "farmers, school children, factory workers and other classes". The Canadian Government Motion Picture Bureau, (CGMPB) advertised "Canada's scenic attractions, agricultural resources and industrial development."

Today these films provide a rare glimpse at how work, industry, gender, and class was understood and promoted by the state over 100 years ago. The narratives in the films avoided overt discussions of politics. Unions are invisible in these films, though they feature industries where unions were militant and active. Similarly, protests of any kind do not appear, yet in their absence, they have much to say about workplace struggle.
