Many of us here at Warm Up were thrilled just to get the opportunity to watch this documentary when we first saw this amazing flyer. After first hearing about this film during the ‘Defend Ka Louie’ campaign back in November, a couple of us have been trying to track down a way to watch it for ourselves with no luck. Today we asked if we could help promote the event and in response we were offered the opportunity to table! We are extremely excited to join filmmaker Steven DeCastro Malaya Massachusetts and our comrades at @lucyparsonscent for the screening of Revolution Selfie at The Democracy Center on February 25 at 3pm. While learning about the struggle for national democracy in the Philippines come chat with us and grab a few pins and stickers from our table! #RevolutionSelfie #StevenDeCastro #AnakBayan #NPA #KaLouie #WarmUpBoston
