SFGP Greenzine: Monthly Meeting tonight, Wed. 7pm / KPFA endorsements / Tabling
by Announcement list for SF Green Party, updated weekly 22 Sep '10

22 Sep '10

*Greentings,* *SF Green Party Monthly** Meeting** always open to the public* *Wednesday 9/22 7-9 pm* at *El CafeTazo* 3087 16th St (between Mission & Valencia) Join us to help plan our upcoming activities for the election season. We've made our endorsements, but we need to plan voter guide distribution, precinct walking, and other activities. What candidates should we focus on, and what actions can we take to be sure our endorsed candidates win? Registered Greens who volunteer with us or otherwise work to further the goals of the party are fully empowered to help make our decisions. If you want to volunteer, contact the County Council by emailing cc(a)sfgreens.org. ============================ *KPFA Board Endorsements * For those of you who are listener members at KPFA, we want to remind you to send in your ballots--they are due back at the station on September 30. This year, we have a chance to elect four Greens to the local station board: Kate Tanaka, Cynthia Johnson, Tracy Rosenberg and Janet Kobren! Last year, it took just 300 votes to be elected to the board, so if all Greens vote we can really make a huge difference in electing candidates who share a Green perspective on political change and opposition to the corporate domination of society. The SF Green Party urges votes for all the Independents for Community Radio slate: Kate Tanaka, Cynthia Johnson, Tracy Rosenberg, Janet Kobren, Stephen Astourian, Gina Szeto, Hyun-Mi Kim, Monadel Herzallah, Georgia Frazier, Naeem Deskins. Visit www.voteindyradio.org to find out more about the candidates and the issues. Please rank the above slate first, followed by the candidates on the Voices for Justice Radio<http://www.voicesforjusticeradio.org/>slate. Please do NOT vote for any of the candidates on the misnamed Save KPFA slate <http://savekpfa.org/>, as they aim to turn KPFA into a virtual arm of the Democratic Party. ============================ * CA Governor's Debate demonstration with Laura Wells* There is a Gov. debate in October in Marin. Surprise, Laura is not being invited. Most telling is that Laura was told she needed 10% in the polls to be invited, but we have confirmed that none of the polls that were conducted even offered her as an option. People were only asked "Whitman or Brown". The polls are fixed! Marin Greens are on top of this, and have planned a protest. CA Governor's Debate demonstration with Laura Wells Tuesday, October 12th 5:00pm Demonstration starts 6:30pm Debate begins between Jerry Brown and Meg Whitman At the corner of Acacia Avenue & Grand Avenue in San Rafael, CA Need more info? Contact: Marnie Glickman, 415-472-2850, marnie(a)greenchange.org There is also a brunch/fundraiser. Open the Debates Brunch Party for Laura Wells Saturday, October 9th 10:00am - 12:00pm At the home of Larry and Holly Bragman 30 Hickory Road, Fairfax, CA ============================ *Tabling at Portola Festival Sunday 9/26, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.* Please contact the County Council at cc(a)sfgreens.org if you are interested in helping us table. This is a great opportunity to reach a neighborhood we have not tabled in before. ============================ *The San Francisco Film Society announces upcoming NY/SF International Children’s Film Festival*, September 24-26 at Landmark’s Embarcadero Center Cinema. The Festival will feature a diverse selection of short, feature, animated and documentary films from around the world appropriate for kids and teens ages 3-18 and their families, and enjoyed by the public at large. The San Francisco Film Society is contacting you to inform you of some films that we believe may be in line with SF Green Party's focus on conservation and environmentalism. *Turtle – The Incredible Journey* is an awe-inspiring nature film that follows the personal story of a single loggerhead turtle, one of hundreds of adorable, vulnerable babies born in the sands of the Florida coast, as she grows into a strong-willed adult braving the 6,000-mile journey that has been the species’ perilous ritual for millions of years. Jacques-Rémy Girerd’s *Mia & the Migoo* is a thrilling eco-adventure that pits a plucky, wild-haired young girl against profit-hungry developers, with the future of life on Earth in the balance.
