Guest guest Posted March 23, 2003 Report Share Posted March 23, 2003 Hey everyone, Freedom for Animals will be having a meeting on Sunday (3/30) to discuss upcoming activism for April and to discuss a bunch of projects and ideas we are working on and mulling over. The meeting will be at my house, at 1042 Haight St., Apt. 3 in SF. Cross streets are Baker and Broderick. It will start at 6:00pm. Any vegan goodies you'd like to bring are surely welcome! You can call me at 415-522-1892 if you have any questions. We hope hundreds of you will attend! Some events we have planned for April are the March of Crimes' Walk America protest, pre- Easter Honeybaked Hams protest(s), a Ben & Jerry's ice cream feed-in, vegan video brigades and KFC protests, and of course neiman marcus protests every sunday, no matter what, from 2-4. We'll also be tabling at the We the Planet Festival on Easter (and will have a free ticket for it for anyone who shows up to any of our events before then) and at the SF Universalist Church event. We'd love to hear your suggestions about additional events we could plan. Projects we're working on/mulling over that we'd like people's feedback and efforts on include an animal rights book club, veg resourece guide to the Bay Area, skill-sharing workshops, and more I'm sure I'm overlooking. As you can see, we're quite an active and motivated group. We'd really like to see some new faces at these events!!! We're such a new group and could really use the support of other dedicated veggies and AR people, so I hope you'll join us in getting involved! Carla will be emailing the specific agenda for the meeting in the next few days, so I promise this meeting will be more organized than our first one! We'll be planning the calendar, discussing the projects above, delegating longer- term responsibilities, and brainstorming about how to get more people involved in ways that they feel comfortable with--especially given the political climate right now--and just being a more powerful and effective voice for the animals. If you are unable to come to the meeting but would like to get (more) involved with FFA and animal rights activism, please email me! Please regularly check out our events calendar at www.freedom4animals.org/events and feel free to show up to any of them! Apologies for cancelling a few events due to the war protests. We'll be back to our regular schedule next weekend! Hope everyone's hanging in during this difficult time, and not forgetting the animals who are still languishing in cages and being exploited and killed to satisfy human whims, and need compassionate people like us to speak out for them now more than ever.
