BOOK TALK: GRASSROOTS. PLEASE COME!

Book Reading and Discussion Panel on Activism! EVENT LOCATION: Mcnally Robinson 50 Prince St. New York , NY 10012 Will you join us? Hosted By:Planned Parenthood choicevoice@ppnyc.org October 19, 2005 at 5:30 pm "What can I do to help?" is a phrase that many of us repeat on a daily basis. In their new book Grassroots: A Field Guide for Feminist Activism, Jennifer Baumgardner and Amy Richards address this question and passionately describe their own experiences with activism that have taken them around the world. Come and join us to hear the authors read and speak about what it means to move beyond "passive activism" towards a place where far reaching impact and change can be made.

Afterward listen and contribute as current activists speak about their own personal experiences of working for change. You'll have the opportunity to sign up for upcoming volunteer events and be inspired to begin your own journey of activism within your community!
