[lbo-talk] May 1: Workshop in Byrant Park

[Julio Huato]

The media group of OWS is organizing workshops to be held at the point
of convergence on May 1, Bryant Park.  (I know, Bryant Park is a huge
place, but we do not yet have the exact location.)  Paddy Quick and I
will be holding a 1-hour workshop at 10am sharp under the title
"Financial Crises and Austerity Policies: Understanding Capitalist
Strategies."  If you are in the neighborhood, attend, take part, help
out.  Email me off-list if you wish to have my cell phone number.

Here's Paddy Quick's bio:

Paddy Quick is a Professor of Economics at St. Francis College,
Brooklyn. She has a B.A. from Oxford University and a Ph.D. from
Harvard. Paddy is a member of the Steering Committee of the Union for
Radical Political Economics (URPE), and a member of Occupy Patchogue,
Long Island, NY.

Finally, I'm interested in interesting-looking people (young, old, and
in between) who may want to pose/voice interesting economic or
political-economic questions on camera for us, URPErs.  We will have a
camera and all that and we'll be trying to video record people asking
interest questions of relevance to the 99% that the URPE summer
conference should address.

Best,

Julio
