Eugene Area Conference This Weekend: Come Learn About Corporate Personhood
Published May 26, 2009 @ 09:19PM PT
For anyone in the Eugene area, I will be in town this weekend doing two presentations related to corporate personhood, both for the Lane Community College Peace Center's 2009 conference, "Peace and Collective Action: Connecting Hope to Change."
My colleague at Democracy Unlimited, David Cobb, and I will host a breakout session on Friday on "Corporations and Militarism," followed by another session on Saturday on "Challenging Corporate Rule Through Community Organizing." Descriptions for these sessions and others are here:

Registration for the conference is here: http://www.lanecc.edu/peacecenter/2009%20conference/Registration.html
I hope if you're near Eugene you'll consider attending! If you can't make it but are part of a group putting on a similar event, and you'd like to have someone present on corporate personhood, please be in touch.
(And while we travel across the country, if you're quite far from northern California, we can also put you in contact with others in your neck of the woods doing education and organizing on this topic.)
