Conversations with Bob Zellner
Longtime civil and human rights activist
Formerly in SNCC (Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee)

Young and old activists alike can't miss this opportunity to meet and talk 
with a living historical treasure. Topics can include democratic organizing 
and the "beloved community" of SNCC, the political spectrum with which we 
build coalitions, building a sustainable organization, race and gender in 
organizing - you can shape the conversation with this rare opportunity.

TODAY!
5:30 p.m.
MIT, Bldg 3, Room 270
See http://whereis.mit.edu/bin/map?locate=room_3-270 for directions

"All Americans owe them a debt for - if nothing else - releasing the 
idealism locked so long inside a nation that has not recently tasted the 
drama of a social upheaval...Theirs was the silent generation until they 
spoke, the complacent generation until they marched and sang, the 
money-seeking generation until they renounced comfort and security to fight 
for justice in the dark and dangerous hamlets of the Black Belt [of the 
South]..."
- - Howard Zinn, SNCC: The New Abolitionists, 1964.
