DESCRIPTION:Occupy Forum presents…\n\nF R A C K I N G:\nBuilding a Diverse Movement 
 to Win\n\nHosted by Californians Against Fracking\n\nSpeakers:\nTia 
 Lebherz, Food & Water Watch \nDavid Braun, Americans & Californians Against 
 Fracking\n\nAs fracking continues to expand at an unrelenting pace in 
 California, a movement to stop it is rising up and, like New York,\nis 
 preparing to win a moratorium. But these wins aren’t easy, and this one 
 will be hard won.\n\nThe good news is that powerful networks exist and 
 smart organizing is going on in multiple communities to stop the oil and 
 gas industry and their toxic processes.  \n\nCome hear about what the 
 membership of Californians Against Fracking is planning for the fall, share 
 your ideas, and find out how you can plug in for the win.\n\nTia Lebherz is 
 the Northern California organizer for Food & Water Watch. Based in Oakland, 
 she works to engage activists and hold elected officials accountable on a 
 range of issues across the region including fracking, water privatization, 
 and food issues including factory farms and genetic engineering.\n\nPrior 
 to joining Food & Water Watch, Tia worked extensively in the Midwest 
 organizing on campaigns for clean energy and fair food. Tia most recently 
 worked as the Michigan organizer for Food & Water Watch based in 
 Detroit.\n\nDavid Braun is a co-founder of Americans Against Fracking and 
 New Yorkers Against Fracking, and has recently relocated back to his home 
 state of California to fight fracking where he works with Californians 
 Against Fracking, a coalition of over 150 organizations fighting for a ban. 
 While in New York, David founded and worked with several grassroots 
 anti-fracking organizations including United for Action, Sane Energy 
 Project, among others.  Previously, he was the grassroots coordinator for 
 the films, GASLAND and GASLAND II. Before working on the fracking issue, he 
 worked with MoveOn and has also engaged with numerous other social, 
 environmental and economic justice campaigns.\n\nAnnouncements will follow. 
 \nDonations to OccupyForum to cover our costs are encouraged; No one turned
