Sixth Annual National Conference on Organized Resistance

We are currently in the process of planning the sixth annual, National
Conference on Organized Resistance. This conference is held towards the end
of January, in Washington D.C., on the campus of American University. The
conference hopes to play a significant role in coordinating a dialogue
between activist groups, and spark in-depth discussion of strategies and
tactics of our various social justice movements. The conference usually
draws 1,000-3,000 people from all over the country, as well as from
outside the United States.
We are at the stage now where we are trying to design workshops, lectures
and discussions. There will be a call for proposals in a short while, but
for now we are looking for your help.

We are asking you, our fellow activists, to tell us what you would want in
a conference, whether or not you plan to attend. We would like you to suggest
topics you would like to see addressed, specific events or movements you
would like to see profiled, and specific speakers you would want to see.
We also ask that if you have been to one of the previous conferences, you
relay any criticisms or suggestions to us. The responses received will form the
basis for our pool of ideas. This conference is for all of us, and we
would like to see it fit the needs and desires of a broad range of people.
Please help us make this year's conference one that everyone enjoys and benefits
from.

Please send all comments, suggestions, thoughts, etc to
ncor_2003@gofairtrade.net

We would appreciate is all responses are sent as soon as possible and no
later than August 1st.

Please feel free to post this announcement anywhere you deem appropriate.

anti-authoritarian nature. ending oppression, in all forms, is the
foundation of our organization.

Please know that we are allies to anti-authoritarians, and oppose
authoritarianism in any form. This is not a conference for the
authoritarian-left.]
