Check out the 2nd Annual ALL POWER TO THE IMAGINATION! CONFERENCE happening April 24, 25, and 26th 2009.
Call for support, participation, and presentations:
The All Power to the Imagination! Conference will be the second annual conference focused on attempting to bridge the gap between “radical theory and practice.” We are looking for a range of presentations, workshops, and activities geared toward illuminating various kinds of alternative/grassroots theories, practices, and real life examples of organized resistance against abusive power. API is organized around the premise of creating a forum in which ANYONE interested in positive action can discuss, contribute to, and learn from the discourse, experiences, and methodologies of those actively engaged in efforts to make the changes they want to see in the world.
If you yourself do not want to present but have a good idea for a presentation or know some rad folk whom you would like to come speak, let us know so we can make it happen!
There will be three full days of presentations, work shops, activities, and entertainment. For a list of last years topics and the general set up for the conference, check out this website: http://theoryandpracticeconference.wordpress.com/
We are currently updating the website for this year’s conference and will keep you posted!
If you are intrigued and want more information regarding the details of the conference or would like to present, please contact Melissa Fisher by email (melissa.fisher@ncf.edu) or phone 727-460-5021.
The All Power to the Imagination! Conference is April 24th-26th! Please come out and join us!
