Reclaimin' the Commons: June 3 - 9 in San Francisco
31 May 2004
by
RTC outreach

A mass mobilization is afoot from June 3-9 in San Francisco to oppose the hostile corporate takeover of the necessities of life, and to demonstrate the solutions to corporate power that already exist. I’m forwarding this because it’s very much a grassroots effort, and we are what makes up those grassroots…
The biotechnology industry will be
meeting in San Francisco from June 6-9th, to "celebrate the benefits of biotech to health, agriculture, the economy and the environment."
BIO 2004 will be met with an alternative gathering called
Reclaim the Commons, from June 3-9th. Although
BIO's website claims that the Bay Area "is the world's leading bioscience corridor," the Bay Area is also renowned for its recent resistance against global capitalism, protests against destruction of the environment, and the US war on Iraq.
Reclaim the Commons consists of a number of
working groups that focus on greening the Bay Area, messaging, a welcome center, and the planning of various actions. Read a list of events - and
add your own event(s) - on the Reclaim the Commons
Calendar.
