Black Cat
1811 14th Street NW

Celebrate St. Patrick's Day and support opening a new radical space with a film showing of Ken Loach's The Wind that Shakes the Barley in the back room at the Black Cat.

Plot Summary:
"Ireland 1920: workers from field and country unite to form volunteer guerrilla armies to face the ruthless "Black and Tan" squads that are being shipped from Britain to block Ireland's bid for independence. Driven by a deep sense of duty and a love for his country, Damien abandons his burgeoning career as a doctor and joins his brother, Teddy, in a dangerous and violent fight for freedom."

Come at 8pm, browse our selection of used and new radical books, used clothing, custom silk-screened t-shirts, radical periodicals, then stay for the movie at 9.

I hear the Black Cat has Guinness on tap!
