Central Coast activists come together for the Third Annual
People's March for Social and Economic Justice. Headlining speakers include
Jim Hightower,
Arianna Huffington, and
Anita Roddick.
Workshops and panels will focus on local issues including democracy and civil rights, healthcare, food, housing, environmental issues, media awareness, racism, labor and workers' rights, issues affecting women, anti-war organizing, the war and people of color.
The intention is to put words into action, to advance from simply being agitated to being organized, to strategize and encourage direct and do-able citizen actions. The theme this year is "A Call to Activism".
