"STOP THE WAR ON OUR HEALTH!

Support the HUNGER STRIKERS

MAY 6-13, NEW YORK CITY

Despite their failing health on May 6 a group of injured workers will begin a seven-day hunger strike in front of Governor George Pataki's office here in New York City. Other members of the National Mobilization Against Sweatshops have urged them to take caution due to their personal health situations. However the hunger strikers feel that -- together with other injured workers-hurt on the job or by 9-11 -- they have exhausted all other avenues to compel Pataki to address the health concerns of working people.

20th Anniversary"




Aurora University George Williams - Lake Geneva Campus

Williams Bay, WI May 30-June 1, 2003

Dear friend:



I would like to invite you to RadFest 2003, an annual

weekend conference for progressive activists and

academics organized by the A. E. Havens Center for the

Study of Social Structure and Social Change at the

University of Wisconsin-Madison. The central goal of

the conference is to provide an opportunity for

progressive activists, organizers, and intellectuals to

come together to discuss issues of mutual interest and

concern, strengthen networks, and devise strategies for

progressive social, economic, and political change.

RadFest has grown significantly in recent years,

becoming an important annual gathering for

progressives. Last year, for example, approximately 300

people from throughout the upper Midwest and beyond

attended. This year, which will be the 20th anniversary

of the conference, we expect a considerably larger

turnout.
