Subject: [Peace] this sunday


: Beautiful AWARE people:
:
: We pushed FnB back to 630 this week. We are sure there is lots AWARE has
to
: discuss, and those discussions are probably paramount. I hope to be at the
: AWARE meeting for those discussions, and hopefully to briefly chat about
: creating a good synergy between the 2 groups (e.g., come for aware, stay
for
: FnB).
:
: Also, I will be attending SOA, but will be continuing on to Florida, so if
: anyone needs a one way ticket to Georgia for some reason...
:
: in solidarity,
: scott

: >About Grace Lee Boggs:
: >Grace Lee Boggs is an activist, writer and speaker whose over sixty years
: >of
: >political involvement encompass the major U.S. social movements of this
: >century: Labor, Civil Rights, Black Power, Asian American, Women's and
: >Environmental Justice. In 1992, she co-founded Detroit Summer, a
: >multicultural, intergenerational youth program to rebuild, redefine and
: >respirit Detroit from the ground up. Currently she is active in Detroit
: >Summer and with the Freedom Schoolers, writes for the weekly Michigan
: >Citizen, and does a monthly commentary on WORT (Madison, Wisconsin). Her
: >autobiography, Living for Change, is widely used in university classes on

: >
: >Schedule:
: >Sunday, November 7
: > 7:30pm - Living for Change
: > Grace Boggs will review her 89-year journey, from her birth
: >to Chinese immigrant parents in 1915 to involvement in the Black Power,
: >Women's, Asian American, Environmental Justice, Education for Democracy,
: >and
: >Anti-War Movements. Today all these issues have become interconnected.
Last
: >week's election results have made it more urgent than ever that we tie
them
: >together with a vision that people can begin working toward. How do we
: >become solution-oriented visionaries?  Connect issues? Rebuild, redefine,
: >and re-spirit our cities from the ground up? Practice transformation?
Grow
: >our souls?
: >
: >Monday, November 8
: > 7:30 pm - From Black Power to Beyond Black & White
: > Grace was the coordinator of the all-black Michigan Freedom
: >Now Party in 1964 and one of the main organizers of the 1963 Grassroots
: >Leadership Conference where Malcolm made his famous speech less than two
: >weeks before the assassination of JFK. In this session we will discuss
the
: >development of the Black Power movement in the 1960s, the new challenges
: >arising in the 1970s from de-industrialization and the devastation of our
: >cities and communities and current issues.
: >
: >Tuesday, November 9
: > 7:30pm - The Future of Education
: > How are we going to redefine education so that 30-50% of
: >inner city children do not drop out of school, thus ensuring that large
: >numbers will end up in prison?  Is it enough to call for  "Education, not
: >Incarceration"?  Or do we need a paradigm shift in our concept of
: >schooling?
: >Should education be mainly for jobs? How do we educate for democracy, not
: >passivity? What would a democratic classroom look like?
: >
: >Wednesday, November 10
: > 7:30pm - Women and the Building of a New World
: > When women began meeting in small groups forty years ago,
: >laughing and crying over stories of growing up female in a male-dominated
: >society, we/they had no idea that we were starting a movement that would
: >not
: >only struggle for women's rights but also challenge the Western concept
of
: >pursuing the development of the productive forces at the expense of the
: >Earth, indigenous peoples and women.
: >
: >Thursday, November 11
: > 7:30pm - "Another World is Possible"

: >for
: >social justice have gone global in opposition to corporate globalization.

: >Charlie King
: >
: >"The songs are meticulous masterpieces, lyrically and musically.... each
