JOIN PROGRESSIVE LEADERS FOR POST-ELECTION DEBRIEF and SKILL SHARE!!!

With so many people at all levels discovering amazing ways in communicating, organizing, using technology to make a difference and adapting to new media habits, it doesn't make sense for a post-election debrief to exclude you... This is why we are calling all technologists, local union activists, grassroots community leaders, precinct captains, heads of a local parties and activists who are kicking ass in a bold new way!

We invite you to attend RootsCamp NYC on Saturday, 18 November 2006 at Polytechnic University in Brooklyn

What is RootsCamp NYC?
Just like in the style of Barcamp, it's a FREE unconference, where you set the agenda.

We will talk about the past and plan for the future.

Think of it as a cross between an election debrief and grassroots organizing skills share. The progressive community - everyone from the "netroots" to precinct captains to field organizers to national message consultants - will come together and hash out:

  • What did we learn in 2006?
  • How can we apply those lessons in 2008 and beyond?
  • What are our next steps to strengthen the progressive movement?

To participate, there are four actions you need to take...

  1. Add yourself to the attendees list!
  2. Check out the sample schedule, and think about what you'll talk about it and post it to the Proposed Sessions!
  3. Join the RootsCamp NYC Google Group
  4. Forward this message to a friend!

See you at RootsCamp NYC!!!

Words to live by

"Because religious belief, or non-belief, is such an important part of every person's life, freedom of religion affects every individual. State churches that use government power to support themselves and force their views on persons of other faiths undermine all our civil rights. Moreover, state support of the church tends to make the clergy unresponsive to the people and leads to corruption within religion. Erecting the 'wall of separation between church and state,' therefore, is absolutely essential in a free society.

"We have solved ... the great and interesting question whether freedom of religion is compatible with order in government and obedience to the laws. And we have experienced the quiet as well as the comfort which results from leaving every one to profess freely and openly those principles of religion which are the inductions of his own reason and the serious convictions of his own inquiries."


— -- Thomas Jefferson, to the Virginia Baptists (1808).
