ONE LAST OPPORTUNITY TO ATTEND THE VOLUNTEER MEETING
This SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 13TH AT 1:30PM we are having an important (and the final) meeting for all volunteers interested in participating in any way in the Bay Area caravan to New Orleans (see address below). In order to make this caravan the biggest success possible, all volunteers should do their best to make it to this meeting. If you cannot make it to this meeting please be in contact me right away.

The meeting location is: The Green Party office in San Francisco, 1028A Howard Street, between 6th and 7th Streets.

ANTI –RACIST TRAINING
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 13TH FROM 4:00pm-8:30pm, an anti-racist training, especially for white folks, will be held at the same Green Party location noted above. The training will be led by long-time anit-racist trainers, Sharon Martinas and Amie Fishman. They both have a lengthy history of social justice work and are not professional trainers. Sharon and Amie are ordinary folks who consider this work an important part of their responsibility as white activists who want to strenghthen the social justice work we all do. Note that it’s BYOB, Bring Your Own Burrito. IF YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY SIGNED UP FOR THIS TRAINING AND YOU INTEND TO PARTICIPATE, please contact Sharon at cws [at] igc.org or 415-647-0921.
