Come to the first Melbourne screening of this great new documentary and support 3CR Community Radio and Green Left Weekly this Friday! Radical Wollongong is the documentary tale of miners battling deadly working conditions, women fighting Australia's biggest company, activists jailed for resisting the Vietnam draft, and today's movement to stop coal seam gas.
From strikes to community rallies, from work-ins to parliament occupation, it features activist participants from Wollongong's unemployed unions, communists forced to set up an underground organisation, the battle against 'Pig Iron Bob', and struggles for Aboriginal justice in the Illawarra. This is the action-packed, people-powered story of Radical Wollongong. You won't see this film anywhere else in Melbourne! Tickets at the door.
