Talks and Bike Tour!

[Chris Carlsson]

Hi everyone!
Tomorrow night is the next "Towering Ideas" Fall/Winter Talk on the topic of
"The Trouble with Voting"... and given the empty rituals underway
municipally and nationally, what better time to discuss it? This Saturday
I'm conducting the Ecological History Bicycle Tour, 12-4 from Counterpulse
(1310 Mission at 9th)... and next week Wed Oct. 17 is the next installment
of Art & Politics featuring Hugh D'Andrade,...

The Trouble With Voting October 10, 7:30 pm

Does voting matter? Do you urge everyone around you to vote? What kinds of
power do we gain or lose by participating in elections? What else can we do?
We'll hear from folks who believe in representative democracy, those who
propose reforms, and those who reject it outright. Michael Med-o Whitson,
Natasha Marsh (Calif League of Independent Voters), James Rucker (Ruckus
Society)... free.
Bicycle History Tour: Ecological History
October 13: 12-4 p.m.Chris Carlsson leads another of his popular tours,
skirting the landfills, creeks, sand dunes lying beneath the concrete,
discussing how popular political efforts have preserved open space,
pioneered community gardens, mobilized against freeways and for bicycles,
and much much more... $15-50 sliding scale donation to benefit Shaping San
Francisco

Art & Politics: Hugh D'Andrade October 17: 7:30 p.m.

Hugh will present a slideshow of his diverse body of work, ranging from rock
posters to anti-war flyers to original paintings, and talk about the ways
his politics have informed his art—and vice versa.... free.
