is fast approaching and we are all getting super excited at how well things
are falling into place. In preparation for the gathering, folks at Guilford
College will be holding an open community discussion in The Underground
of Founders Hall on Thurs @ 7pm. This will be a safe space for anyone
in the community to voice any questions, joys, or concerns about anarchism
in general or about the conference itself. It (As an added incentive, we'll also be showing a video of PBS's NOW, with Bill Moyers, as well as some amazing first hand footage from Miami, complete with discussion on the current US atmosphere towards dissent.) This list was compiled by some Chattanooga activists. They have produced a nifty little zine that contains this calendar and more, "Rising Sun: a field guide to the eastern uprisings - a collection of happenings and places in eastern North America, 2004." Its intended as an easy to use guide to lots of the groovy happenings and places in the east this year. If you would like a copy, please drop an email to johnjEF@bledsoe.net or send a dollar or two to PO Box 281 Chattanooga, TN 37401 They would like help with photocopying and postage costs. You can photocopy the zine and share it around. You can also add or delete things if you would like to. If you would like a version of it as an attachment in MS Publisher, please send an email to magnolia at efactivist@yahoo.com. you will have to add yer own graphics on that one. Spring
