DESCRIPTION:San Francisco Green Party, Women's International League for Peace and 
 Freedom, and New College of California present:\n\nCORPORATIONS ARE 
 PERSONS? \n\nNew College Cultural Center, 766 Valencia Street., San 
 Francisco\nFree Public Workshop \n\nLive Webcast: To listen go to: 
 http://newmedia.newcollege.edu:8000\n\nWhat is corporate personhood? How 
 has it allowed corporations to amass power and wealth? How did it become 
 law? Why is it a threat to democracy? Learn what we're doing about it in 
 San Francisco!  \n\nAs legal persons, corporations have more rights than 
 human beings. Corporations: (1) use free speech to make gigantic political 
 contributions, (2) use the 4th Amendment to prevent random inspections 
 intended to prevent labor abuse and pollution, and (3) leverage 
 anti-discrimination laws to force Big Box Stores into small communities. 
 And more.  \n\nJoin these presenters for an evening of education, 
 enlightenment and empowerment: \n\nJan Edwards (a California leader of the 
 WILPF campaign to Abolish Corporate Personhood); \n\nDavid Cobb (General 
 Counsel for the Green Party of the United States); \n\nBill Meyers (author 
 of "Santa Clara Blues" & co-author of the Point Arena Resolution on 
 Corporate Personhood); \n\nMarc Kasky (citizen activist and plaintiff in 
 Nike vs. Kasky, a lawsuit currently pending in the US Supreme Court). 
 \n\nSponsors: the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, the 
 San Francisco Green Party, and New College of California. For more
