Shaping SF OT: Carlsson appears 3x this week plus...

[Chris Carlsson]

Hi Everyone,
Sorry to use the Shaping SF list for something not quite precisely about San
Francisco's history, but given our long history as part of movements of
global dissent, as well as the importance of germinating dissident thinking
here, I think these are relevant...

First a new online publication has appeared which features dozens of
contributions from luminary and less familiar voices of global dissent,
regarding the upcoming presidential conventions and elections. It's called *In
the Middle of a Whirlwind*, and I heartily recommend giving it a look:
http://www.inthemiddleofawhirlwind.info/

I am back in town for a week in the midst of a two-month tour for the new
book *Nowtopia* <http://www.nowtopia.org>, and will be appearing tonight in
the East Bay at AK Warehouse and then twice more:

*Thurs., June 5* AK Press warehouse <http://www.akpress.org/events/event2>,
Oakland, CA 7:30

*Mon., June 9* Take Back the Commons
Talk<http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/448760/>6 pm

*Thurs., June 12* City Lights Books<http://www.citylights.com/info/?fa=events>,
San Francisco, CA 7:30
Then I'm taking off to the Northwest, with stops in Eugene, Portland
(Towards Carfree Cities Conference and more), eventually ending in Victoria,
BC. You can send your friends up there to this link:

OK, thank your for your indulgence

ALSO, the LAST Bike History Tour of the "Spring" season is on Saturday July
5 at 12 noon at CounterPULSE, Labor History (and it falls on the anniversary
of 1934's "Bloody Thursday"--come on the tour to find out all about it...more
