Conference for : Community Action, Autonomy and Solidarity
When: May 22nd 9:00A.M.�7:00P.M.
Where: UCLA Labor Center 675 S. Park View Street In front of Mac Arthur Park
We feel impelled to call for dialogue and action that will lead to effective
transformative change. Our purpose is to call forth our communities to come and
take the first steps toward building for change. Who is the community? All of
us: workers, students, families�All! In essence�we who compose every part of
society. Furthermore, it is imperative that as people of struggle we come
together to engage in the dialogue necessary to uncover the oppression that is
being perpetuated against us: racism, sexism, poverty, miseducation, and the
list continues in an oppressive state. Only by dialogue can we begin to talk
about effective means for change and take action. We aim to bring forth this
understanding through looking at the past and the present (both socially and
economically). How feasible is this change? We will discuss how as students,
workers, and families we can make this happen.
The conference would be structured to enable the most possible participation
from the people who attend, and it the discussion would be facilitated. We
would be more effective in not only engaging in dialogue but building a
collective vision of the movement we want to build today and the world we want
to live in tomorrow.
We have waged important struggles overall, but we we need to discuss tactics
and strategy, and the effectiveness of the existant and non-existant movement.
Our goal of this conference is not just to get together and discuss but to plan
and give direction to organization. We intend on building communities and
culture of resistance, struggle, and tranformation. We want to challenge the
activist culture, and re-direct our struggle.
The conference is open to all, we would ask that organizations pre-register
with the organizers. We ask that those who wish to participate to help in
outreaching to communities.
