Poetry reading and video presentation. Before the
America's 9/11, there was another one in Santiago,
Chile when the dictator Augusto Pinochet used Hawker
Jets to bomb the Presidential Palace on September 11,
1973 to remove the democratically elected President
Salvador Allende. As a counter reaction to the
bombing, Casagrande, an underground literary
organization of young poets born during Pinochet,
rented a helicopter and dropped 100,000 poems on the
Presidential Palace on March 23, 2001. They followed
with a bombing of Dubrovnik, Croatia and Gernika,
Spain -- both cities bombed in the past. Learn more
about Casagrande.
Thank You,
