DESCRIPTION:Lessons of March 4 And The Education Struggle\nRadical Education Workshop: 
 Occupations, Strikes & Alternatives. This event will engage in a radical 
 critique of education today, with accounts of the recent agitation on March 
 4th on college campuses and K-12 schools in the Bay Area, throughout the 
 U.S., and abroad. These actions were in response to drastic cuts to public 
 education as part of the resistance to the privatization of education 
 taking place across the planet. The participants will place the militant 
 tactics of occupations and strikes by placing them within a larger 
 anti-capitalist strategy. Also discussed will be recent education struggles 
 in Oaxaca, Mexico and Greece. Comparisons with prior struggles, like the 
 4-million-strong nationwide Student Strike in 1970, as well as the 
 5-month-long SF State strike in 1968-1969, the longest in U.S. history & 
 unique because the faculty struck too.\nGifford Hartman, the moderator, is 
 an Adult ESL/Literacy instructor and was active in the San Francisco March 
 4th Committee; Maria Lourdes teaches 3rd grade at Sheridan Elementary in 
 San Francisco; Katy Rose is a student at Cañada College and was active in 
 the anti-cuts group Cañada Strikes Back.\nSee
