*THIS* WEDNESDAY, JULY 27 - THE RECYCLERY @ INTERNATIONALIST, 7pm

Join us the for second installment of series 'Against the Grain: 
Networking Local Alternatives' with a presentation by the newly 
re-opened ReCyclery Wednesday.  [For more information about this series 
please see below.]

The ReCyclery is a local bicycle resource center where people share 
skills, stories, and life in an effort to provide free, sustainable 
transportation in our community. The non-profit organization based out 
of Carrboro receives donated and abandoned bicycles and parts and works 
with members of the community to to repair and create "new" bikes. They 
wish to promote more bike-riding as primary means of transportation, and 
consequently sustainability and self-sufficiency.

*TUESDAY, AUGUST 2 - REPORT BACK FROM THE G8 SUMMIT & THE MIDDLE EAST 
SOCIAL FORUM, 7pm*

Next Tuesday at 7pm, Vinci Daro will speak at Internationalist Books, 
reporting back on this month's G8 Summit in Scotland as well at the 
Middle East Social Forum.

AGAINST THE GRAIN: NETWORKING LOCAL ALTERNATIVES

Chapel Hill and the surrounding areas are filled with organizations, 
groups and businesses that are experimenting with, and practicing 
alternative ways of living on a daily basis. Whether as a collective 
bookstore, a cooperative living community, bio-fuel collectives, or 
experiments in public television, we are all working to make the world a 
better place, not only through protest and opposition, but through 
different ways of going about our daily lives and work.

The Internationalist bookstore would like to invite anyone 
interested—and specifically those who are already part of, or identify 
with, such movements and projects—to join us as we begin a monthly 
series in which local groups will be invited to share and exchange ideas 
based on our diverse experiences, hopes and knowledge.

*P.S.*
Thank you to everyone (especially the folks at the Hillsborough Coop) 
who put on this weekend's Carrboro Skill Share.  We need some more of 
that goin' on.  ;)
