Agenda:
Issue #2 -totally
"Section" review
1)Labor:
The Child Labor article is not finished. It
could still be available for future issue.
Space will likely be yielded to HR (see just below)
2)Human Rights
Living wage- Economic rights
Betweeen Belden's & Mike and Maiko et al.,
we have about 2800 words, which can be laid out in
clever ways, we hope, to fit 2 pages, center fold.
Mike is posting an amended version today (Friday)

below. Gordo unsolicited back patting Letter ~350(?)
4) Community Profile
Study Circles- John Wason will pen something posthaste
after solicited article prove unsatisfactory.
Sidebar Diversity Training piece (Shelley?)
5)Media
Gladys Hunt had medical problems and was not able to
write media and African-American images.
Brent (who was at work at the time of the meeting)
spoke of writng about Hong Kong/Hollywood Film
Industry with emphasis on global conglomeration. At
the meeting, I (PFM) spoke of soliciting a media
analysis article that would not be so easily covered
in Art.
Not likely that could be done for this issue.
6)Gummint
IMF-World Bank Dave Madden is to write short piece
about the s30 demo. He recommend a Q&A from
globalexchange.org, could be excerpted for
sidebar/companion piece
NEA Shelley ~750-1000 Sidebar (and photo) of article
about soon to be controversial sculpture (Homage to
Jocelyn Elders) in Meadowbrook Park.
7) Environment
Nuke train critique of Gazoo coverage - and more(?)
Urbana Arborist on IP tree trimming legislation
Who's receiving this? posted directed to web(?)
8) Art- for its own sake,(what's Yikes doing over
there in gummint?)
Newspoetry and Collages
John Wason spoke of a article about former, edited
from wilgill's web writings. "It'll write itself"
<<<After the meeting>>>
Shelley retyped a second draft of Bubblehead and
reposted after the meeting
Brent asked Rose Marshack to write an article about
the "pop" music as art and industry. He suggested that
it would be a 3 part series. I have the same misgiving
as expressed above about calling this a "Media" piece,
though I very much want to read this series.
<<Lindsay wrote that she was meeting the author of the
Alloy Casting article and that she could also
"pull together an article on the Black Beauty Coal
Mine or another local environmental subject".
Could soneone ask that htis article/draft be posted to
website?>>
