Middle
East Dialogue Group : Monday, May 28th at 8:00pm 

Come out this Monday
and engage in a respectful dialogue focusing on Israel and Palestine.
This week we will, in particular, be looking at our viewpoints of this
tense and complex conflict that leaves many innocent people unheard,
unrecognized, without life. Come and exchange your experiences,
knowledge, and passions, and know that they will be fully supported and
heard. Engage with viewpoints that differ (however strongly) from your
own, learn from them, question them. In the course of the conversation,
we will disagree, but at the end of the night, we will be better
understood in our positions.

Deep Green
Resistance Road Show :Saturday, June 23rd at 7:00pm 

Do you see the
dire nature of the current environmental predicament? Do you feel the
crushing imperative to alter the destructive course of industrial
civilization before it's too late? 
 Deep Green Resistance presents A
Culture of Resistance Roadshow. The Roadshow features a program put on
by a traveling group of activists from the environmental and social
justice organization Deep Green Resistance (DGR). DGR recognizes that
the current structure of society--industrial civilization--is
fundamentally unsustainable, and that no degree of small-scale remedial
actions will stop the systematic destruction of the natural world. The
Roadshow workshop will cover the inability of current efforts to truly
address the fundamental contradictions of our modern struggles, and
present concrete steps to an equitable, thriving future. This program is
intended as a practical guide to effective activism, and will leave
attendees feeling empowered to shift the course of history at this most
critical juncture. There will be music, art, and informative
presentations that will give activists the tools they need to make a
difference in this struggle. 
 Join us in saying "No more ineffective
activism!"
