**August 24-26 Tijuana Borderhack Festival, Registration Information**

Borderhack is a 3-days youth activist camp/festival, will be held August
24-26, at the Tijuana side of the US-Mexico border--In front of the actual
border fence that divides the people of two countries. The camp will offer
net art, photograph exhibits, border cinema, ISDN connections, activists
conferences and workshops, global hacktivist and net-media art community from
both side of the US-Mexico border.

We see this is an opportunity to overcome the border to build a bridge
between US and Mexico activists for social, cultural, cyber and activism
exchanges. We say:

- No to the militarization of the border, no to the US operation Gate keeper!
- Support the Mexico Maquiladora's worker and farmer struggles
- No to the NAFTA, FTAA and multinational corporations
- Yes to the bi-national youth, labor, farmer and activist solidarity!

Confirmed speakers, artists and musicians include: Starhawk(US), Arreola
(Mexico), Beehive Collective(US), Tijuana No(Mexico), elbop(US), Rubin
Vasques(Mexico) and more..

This year's Borderhack2.0 will be much bigger, we are forecasting several
hundred people from Los Angeles, San Diego, Santa Barbara and Bay area are
planning to come, please pre-register ASAP so we will know how many people
are planning to come.

It will be great if you can be volunteers for the events, please fill out the
enclosed application form.

We are also looking for more artists, speakers and musicians for the teach-in
and art performance. If you have some good topic for the teach-in, or art
