DESCRIPTION:BACK TO THE FUTURE: Opportunities & Challenges for the Grassroots Peace & 
 Justice Movement\n\nWith PAUL GEORGE\nDirector, Peninsula Peace and Justice 
 Center\n\nIdeally, progressive movements look to the future as people 
 organize to demand social change. For the past eight years, however, the 
 peace and justice movement has had to concentrate its efforts on fighting 
 off the most regressive administration in U.S. history.  With Bush & Co. 
 now gone from the scene, we can look ahead once again and work to make real 
 our vision of a peaceful, just, and humane world.\n\nThere are tremendous 
 opportunities before us.  The financial crisis has opened the door to the 
 possibility of fundamental changes to our economic order.  If done right, 
 these changes may bring some economic fairness and justice where there has 
 been none.  At the same time, we still face challenges from the past eight 
 years.  Foremost among these is stopping the promised escalation of the war 
 and occupation in Afghanistan.  Opportunity or challenge, the time is now 
 to raise our voices and organize together for a better future.\n\nPaul 
 George is the Director of Peninsula Peace and Justice Center, the San 
 Francisco Peninsula’s leading grassroots activist organization.  Paul has 
 been an activist and community organizer for over forty years.  In this 
 talk, he will draw on those years of experience to lay out a broad agenda 
 for the peace and justice movement for the coming months and years. \n\n$5
