US Social Forum - Special Coverage of Day 2

2007-06-29

The first-ever United States Social Forum will take place in Atlanta, Georgia from June 27 - July 1, 2007. US Social Forum Pacifica Special The USSF hopes to provide a process to build a powerful movement in this country based on the organized voices and experiences of those from the grassroots most affected by U.S. and global injustices.

The USSF sends a message to other people's movements around the world that there is an active movement in the U.S. opposing U.S. policies at home and abroad. We must declare what we want our world to look like and begin planning the path to get there. The USSF is our opportunity to demonstrate to the world Another World is Possible!

The USSF will feature six broad themes (coincident with their plenary dialogues):

  • Gulf Coast Reconstruction in the Post-Katrina Era
  • War, Militarism and the Prison Industrial Complex
  • Indigenous Voices: From the Heart of Mother Earth
  • Immigrant and Migrant Rights in a Global Society
  • Liberating Gender and Sexuality: Integrating Gender and Sexual Justice Across Our Movements
  • Workers' Rights in the Global Economy

Pacifica is partnering with AMARC (World Association of Community Radio Broadcasters) to provide daily broadcasts from the Forum in English and Spanish.

Reporters from each Pacifica sister station, various AMARC stations, Pacifica affiliates, and other community radio stations will contribute to the daily broadcast from the Forum. Each broadcast will include news reports & features, recordings from the Forum, and live interviews.
