Debate, Relate and Agitate!
Pennsylvania will begin the process of creating real opposition to the attacks of the last two years on Saturday, March 1 in Carlisle. Leaders from labor, the environment, civil rights, feminist and other progressive movements will gather together to discuss the issues, develop relationships and formulate plans for creating a democratic future.
Debate:
Starting early in the morning we will hear presentations from veterans in various movements update us on what is happening. Group discussion will follow each presentation, allowing for full participation, and honest interaction, by all attendees.
Relate:
Speeches will help us to understand the commonality of our struggles and afternoon sessions will inspire us build real bonds among our movements to create a united progressive force in Pennsylvania. The evening will be spent listening to the inspirational music of Anne Feeney and Chris Chandler www.annefeeney.com, followed by the Emma Goldman Memorial Dance Party. Bring your party hats and your dancing shoes.
Agitate:
We will leave Carlisle having planted the seeds of a united, undefeatable force. But the seeds will need to be nurtured with our time, our money, and possibly our blood. We will need to take actions that recognize the seriousness of the threats we face. That means continuing to develop the relationships that will be started on March 1.
