Detroit People’s Movement Assembly

The US Social Forum is coming to Detroit, June 22-26, and we want to get those
20,000 people taking action on Detroit issues! Come to the Detroit People's
Movement Assembly to plan how we can put ACTION into the US Social Forum.
 
We particularly invite folks interested in actions on:  

  •  the incinerator
  •  immigrant rights
  •  DTE
  •  restaurant workers rights
  •  climate justice

But welcome EVERYONE!

Movements throughout the US are facilitating People's Movement Assemblies (PMA) to mobilize and build solidarity among communities, regions, and movement sectors coming to the US Social Forum. Individuals and organizations will use these assemblies to share our common dreams and collaborate on our plans for action. By holding a PMA you'll be mobilizing your community for Detroit, while connecting your local struggles with those of other communities. When we leave the 2010 USSF we'll be all the more connected, both to our local communities, and to the rest of the country, and thus stronger and more prepared to mobilize for local and large-scale actions.
