HATE FREE KC is a group of local Kansas City folks concerned about the Conference of the Minutemen Civil Defense Corps taking place at the Uptown Theater in mid-town KCMO in early February. We are outraged that the Uptown would host this white supremacist, vigilante group and want to make it clear that their message is not welcome in our city. Anti-racist activists, immigrants' rights advocates, and ALL community members that want a HATE FREE KC are invited to an open meeting to discuss possible coordinated resistance. Please join us and bring your ideas, community contacts and commitment to social justice!

KC Sin Odio es un grupo de personas en Kansas City que están preocupados por el congreso de "los Minutemen" que va a tener lugar en Kansas City en el Uptown Theater durante el mes de Febrero de 2008. Nosotros estamos enojados con el Uptown Theater por ser anfitriones de una organización de vigilantes y racistas y queremos demostrar que el mensaje anti-inmigrante de los Minutemen no es aceptable aquí en nuestra ciudad. Invitamos a todos los que quieran una ciudad SIN ODIO asistir a una reunión para discutir varios planes de resistencia contra los Minutemen y su congreso. Por favor, traigan sus ideas, contactos comunitarios, y su compromiso por la justicia.

It also wouldn't hurt to let the owner of The Uptown know that his offer for the minutemen to use his building for free is repulsive to us who do frequent The Uptown. Or maybe I should say "used to frequent" The Uptown.
