THIS SUNDAY! JUNE 1ST AT 7PM- AUTHOR READING with Karen Hoffman,
debuting her novel "Fool's Footsteps", a story about a PhD lit student,
Kal, tracing the path of an old diary that has been contributed to by
more than 20 writers over 7 years. Written in first person, Kal's gender
remains ambiguous throughout, raising questions about gender identity
and roles. It's also a story about alienation, and the human need to
connect and understand through storytelling.

SATURDAY, JUNE 23RD AT
7PM! DEEP GREEN RESISTANCE ROAD SHOW!

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!"
