 Labor Teach-In!”  The teach-in has three primary goals:  * education to 
 raise awareness about critical social justice and labor movement issues  * 
 strategizing for effective action and successful campaigns  * skills 
 training to optimize our organizing and research  This unique gathering 
 challenges the “pale, male, and stale” image of the labor movement in 
 welcoming and valuing the diverse and critical contributions of all our 
 communities and struggles. We invite students, workers, academics, 
 organizers, and members of our communities of all backgrounds and 
 orientations to come and help create this active, powerful space for 
 solidarity and collective action.  Points of Vision and Expectation:  * 
 make the labor movement “ours”  challenge the “pale, male, stale”  
 diverse, progressive, inclusive  * engage on global level with local level 
 links  * highlight innovative organizing campaigns  * make plans for future 
 work together  * state atmosphere:  imminent roll back of labor progress  
 UC budget will be cut again  * focus on a tangible victory  * inclusion of 
 other campuses:  UCs, CSUs, Indep. Us, Community Colleges, High Schools…  
 * coalition building  * leadership development & action-oriented & 
 coalition building  * build movement to have voice in student government  * 
 create student labor action coalition project  * be more on the offensive  
 * conference is just the beginning  piece of a larger puzzle & vehicle to 
 push us forward  * recruit to be part of labor movement  add to the future,
