 FACILITATION \nThis workshop is particularly for people who are or may help 
 with occupation general assembly meeting facilitation. All over the 
 country, people are flocking to the streets to join occupations demanding a 
 just system for the 99%.  It’s an inspiring vision: thousands of people 
 participating in direct democracy, making decisions, having their voices 
 heard.  And it’s a potential nightmare—thousands of ordinary Americans 
 being subjected to really bad, ponderous consensus meetings, fleeing in 
 frustration and anguish and ready to accept any tyranny over the prospect 
 of more long meetings! Consensus process can be wonderful—or terrible.  
 At it’s best, it can be empowering, creative and efficient.  But for that 
 to happen, people need to understand and agree upon the process.  
 Facilitators need training and skill.  And the group as a whole needs to 
 invest some trust in the facilitation team.\n\nStarhawk is a San Francisco 
 based activist, trainer, and author who had been involved in movements 
 against corporate capitalism for many years. \n\nPlease read this before 
 the workshop if possible:  Short Consensus
