Great!

ICJPE text has evolved a bit -- could you draw from one of these:

   http://dart.ncsa.uiuc.edu/slevy/icjpe/conference2010-8.pdf
        (full page version) or
   http://dart.ncsa.uiuc.edu/slevy/icjpe/conference2_up8.pdf
        (half page handbill version)

This is a couple generations newer than what we had last week,
including panel times and Barbara Kessel's inclusion (yay!).

For the April 11th event, there's an addition -- and the event will run longer --
in the same place, room 126 of GSLIS at 5th and Daniel.

(GSLIS building access: either come up the steps to the door on the
east side of the building, or, there is a handicapped-accessible door
facing the parking lot on the southwest side of the building.)

  Sunday April 11th

   3:00-5:00pm, we'll hear from and talk with

	Kathy Kelly and
	Paul Street, and

   at 5pm, the ISO will show the recent documentary related to Howard Zinn's work:

	"The People Speak"

   ... based on Howard Zinn's groundbreaking books A People's History of
   the United States and Voices of a Peoples History of the United States ...
   ... [it] shows the rich history of dissent in our history, and explores
   why it is so relevant and urgent today.

   The People Speak is working with Voices of a Peoples History of the
   United States, a nonprofit started by Howard Zinn that seeks to
   bring to light little known voices from U.S.  history, including
   those of women, African Americans, Native Americans, immigrants,
   and laborers. By giving public expression to rebels, dissenters,
   and visionaries from our past and present we work to educate and
   inspire a new generation of people working for social justice.

   The goal of Voices is to encourage civic engagement and to further
   history education by bringing the rich history of the United States
   to life through public readings of primary-source materials. Voices
   works to remind people of the eloquence of ordinary people, as well
   as extraordinary and well-known figures from our history.

Cool.
