DESCRIPTION:The Station 40 Events Committee is pleased to announce the third Bay Area 
 Anarchist Salon, a new monthly facilitated conversation by and for 
 anarchists. Our aim is to encourage critical yet constructive dialogue and 
 comradely debate concerning the difficult strategic questions that we face 
 as we try to engage in social transformation; to develop a culture of 
 reconstruction and vision alongside a culture of resistance; and to build 
 more trust and understanding among the diverse anarchist perspectives. Our 
 hope is that through ongoing discussions related to contemporary organizing 
 dilemmas--discussions that focus on ideas not people, and strive to develop 
 a culture of kindness in how we grapple with key strategic issues--our 
 various projects and organizing efforts, within and outside anarchist 
 circles, will become stronger, smarter, and more effective.\n\nThe format 
 each month will be as follows: we'll announce a question for each Bay Area 
 Anarchist Salon in advance. At the salon, we'll do a go-round for people to 
 quickly introduce themselves. Then two people, chosen in advance, will kick 
 off the conversation by offering their thoughts on the question for five to 
 ten minutes each. Two moderators will then facilitate a participatory 
 conversation, striving to ensure that the discussion stays on point, and 
 that everyone feels comfortable to speak, no one speaks too much, and all 
 feel heard and respected. Each salon will last two hours, starting promptly 
 at 7:30 p.m., but we encourage people to hang out informally 
 afterward.\n\nOur third Bay Area Anarchist Salon will address the question, 
 "How do we cultivate our capacity and commitment as anarchists to end male 
 supremacy, and more effectively contribute to organizing for freedom, 
 health, and dignity?" The conversation will be initiated by Marshall Hilton 
 (Bike Kitchen) and Leona (Ardent Press), and will be moderated by Cindy 
 Milstein (Institute for Anarchist Studies) and Loren (UA in the Bay).\n\n
