DESCRIPTION:Please join us at this community event to honor this year's peace and 
 justice award winners! \n\n"Community Organization of the Year Award" goes 
 to Richmond Progressive Alliance.  Keynote speaker for the evening will be 
 Gayle McLaughlin (Former Richmond Mayor) accepting the award for Richmond 
 Progressive Alliance.  \n\nThis award is being given to honor 
 RPA's courage, foresight and success in mobilizing the public to overcome 
 the status quo control of the City,  educating the community about the 
 consequences of sugar soda, building community parks and bike paths, 
 defeating plans for a casino and successfully mobilizing support for the 
 enactment of rent control.\n\n"Peace Advocate of the Year Award" goes to 
 Andrew Lichterman, Senior Research Analyst, Western States Legal 
 Foundation.  Lichterman has been on the staff of WSLF (the Oakland-based 
 anti-nuclear organization) since 1983.   He is the principal author of 
 hundreds of briefing papers and information bulletins and regularly speaks 
 as an authority at international conferences.  Lichterman has researched, 
 written and campaigned for the enforcement of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation 
 Treaty, the exposure of US violations and the need for greater awareness of 
 the huge dangers of unchecked nuclear threats and continued development.  
 As a lawyer, Lichterman has represented peace and environmental activists 
 in a variety of settings. \n  \nThis is the social event of the year for 
 the 45 year-old Center.  It includes a full-course dinner, drink, live 
 music, a raffle, student art and a silent auction with theater tickets, 
 restaurants, family outings, jewelry and more!   We're accepting donations 
 as well!\n \n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2015/10/13/18778822.php
