"Monitoring Civil Rights on the Ground" & OCBORDC Meeting

Date: 

Wednesday, February 27, 2008 - 2:00pm

Location: 

Chapel Hill Town Hall, Training Room

From Peggy Misch:

Orange County Bill of Rights Defense Committee Friends,

In order to have two speakers talk to us and have a DVD player, I've called the meeting this month in a public room with equipment when guests are available. Please come and bring someone else.

The BORDC website (www.bordc.org) is filled with lots of information on pending legislation. We can make a difference by contacting David Price, responding to candidates with questions when they appeal for money, writing letters to the editor.

Below details of the next meeting, I've copied some current activities in Congress, taken from BORDC's website.

You may support Tamara Tal's arraignment in Chapel Hill Courthouse (enter from the East Franklin Street Post Office), Feb 18, sometime after 9AM. The charge is "failure to disperse" from Burger King during the national campaign to support tomato pickers supplying this chain, November 30.

"Monitoring Civil Rights on the Ground": Screening by local videograher of UNC students supporting citizens of Jena, LA, during town's commemoration of MLK Day, Jan 21, 2008, and report on incident of arrest for failure to disperse at Burger King on Elliott Road Nov 20. All welcome for discussion. Orange County Bill of Rights Defense Committee, 7 PM, Feb 27, Chapel Hill Town Hall, Training Room. 942-2535.
