The World Cup Alternative Hotties List and the United States Social Forum

The World Cup Alternative Hotties List and the United States Social Forum

Eye candy incluido below.

 

What happened at the United States Social Forum?

·      Over 15,000 people from across the United States and around the world attended the USSF (http://www.ussf2010.org) in Detroit, Michigan, from June 22 – 26, 2010.

o   Many also attended the Allied Media Conference (http://alliedmediaconference.org) from June 17 – 19, 2010

o   Other national gatherings were held in the days between the AMC and the USSF, such as the

o   Progressive Communicators Network (http://progressivecommunicators.net) and

o   National Network for Immigrant and Refugee Rights (http://www.nnirr.org)

·      Over 100 People’s Movement Assemblies were held concurrently, which came up with over 100 resolutions, statements, commitments and visions for the US and the world, which we will follow up in our work during the next period. For more about PMAs, see here: http://www.pma2010.org/process

·      Resolutions I think are key for my/our work in the next period:

o   The National Synthesis: http://pma2010.org/node/188/

§  Key points: intersectionality, displacement and migration, climate and ecological justice,

o   From Detroit to Dakar: http://www.pma2010.org/node/180

o   Trans and Queer PMA: http://pma2010.org/node/210 

o   Gender Justice on Intersectionality: http://pma2010.org/node/173

o   Climate and Ecological Justice (link forthcoming)

 

Now here’s what I’ve been waiting for:
