We are launching a Northeast/Midatlantic Caravan for the US Social Forum (USSF) in Detroit. This can be a great way for us to build a strong community in our region and also help our folks get to Detroit in a cost effective manner. Because if Another World is Possible, Another US is Necessary, and Another Detroit is Happening, we want to make sure the Northeast/Midatlantic community is visible but we are organized to inform the overall political frame of the US Social Forum. Please join us on our first call to help build the Northeast/Midatlantic People's Road to Detroit.
