Occupy Forum | SF
The Occupy Forum is a weekly event and a space to discuss issues of economic inequality and social justice.
Every Monday, there is a new topic and typically there is a guest speaker before the discussion. Come down and speak your mind about the critical issues we face today. It is free and open to all, although donations are encouraged.
Strategies & Tactics of the Anti-Apartheid Movement: Bringing Down an Immoral System
No one thought it could be done. The Apartheid system in South Africa was so entrenched, the power imbalance so stark, it appeared impossible to create a wedge to dismantle the system. Yet the enormity of the injustice sent out a signal to people across the globe who began the process of bringing Apartheid down. How did they do it?Connie Field, documentary filmmaker and historian who spent 15 years creating the 10-part series “Have You Heard from Johannesburg?” will deconstruct the spectrum of strategies and tactics applied, and how they succeeded in making a change most believed could never happen. What worked? What failed? How can the Occupy Movement learn and adapt methods to make radical change in our society?
Monday Night Forum in the Park provides you with information, education, discussion, snacks & community, plus R&B Gospel with Earl and Roy at 5:30pm.
