REMINDER:

Tomorrow night (SUNDAY) at Mandarin Wok in Champaign, 6pm

There will be a fundraising dinner to promote Cliff Thornton's visit to
Champaign Urbana.  He will give a brief introduction to his activism
followed by a discussion of his work.  Order dinner on your own (from the
restaurant), but please consider making a contribution to the Prairie Greens
to help allay the costs of bringing him to the community.

ALSO:

Tuesday, April 15. 112 Chem Annex @ 7pm.

Cliff Thornton will be speaking about the human impact of the drug war,
particularly on people of color and low-income. He will encourage us to
re-examine our drug policies and how to change them to result in a more
socially just system. Thornton is of the drug reform group Efficacy and was
on the board of the NORML from 1999 to 2008. He was the Green Party
candidate for Governor in Connecticut in 2006 and is currently a co-chair of
the Green Party of the United States.
