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. In essence
we are 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 social
ly and economic! ally). 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 w ith the organize! rs. We ask that those who wish to
participate to help in outreaching to communities.

In solidarity....
