Ain't Gonna Let Nobody Turn Us Around!
Can the DC democracy/statehood movement and other progressive movements survive and even thrive during the second term of a Bush administration and an even more conservative Congress? Can we keep it going? The Stand Up! for Democracy in DC Coalition invites you to a teach-in and panel discussion on what and why 2004 happened and how we can continue these important movements. We will bring people with first-hand information to the table. And Stand Up! wants you to share your thoughts, too!
Join in on Tuesday, Nov. 9, at the National Council of Negro Women (633 Pennsylvania Ave. NW). There will be a reception with food starting at 6:30 p.m. The program begins at 7 p.m. For more information, call the Stand Up! hotline at 202/232-2500, ext. 1.
