#1) Listening for a Change- Now on the Eleventh of Every Month 11:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m., Lytton Plaza, Palo Alto (University x Emerson) 

From October 2001 through October 2007, every Wednesday, except when it is raining; I have set up tables, banners, chairs, food, educational material, and created a space for public dialogue on key issues. Beginning in November, this event will take place on the 11th day of every month. We ask the public three questions and write down their responses- 
What do you think/feel about the events of September 11th and the U.S. government's response? 

How could we defuse terrorism?" 

How could we create a safer/better world for our children and all children? 

Sponsored by Women's International League for Peace and Freedom and Northern California 9-11 Truth Alliance All welcome. For more information call Carol Brouillet 650-857-0927.

#2) Sacramento 9/11 Truth Action , Friday, January 11th, 2008 
4:30- 6:00 PM (feel free to come earlier or stay later...) 
11th & L Streets, Sacramento (sidewalk on north side of state capitol) 

Bring signs, handouts, and other information to share with the public. 
This Friday, January 11th, 2008 marks the resumption of 9/11 Truth Action in Sacramento, in solidarity with cities of this nation and around the world who participate in Truth Actions on the Eleventh of every month. Our goals are twofold: 

1) to peacefully demand an investigation that follows the evidence for the crime called “9/11”, and to protest the lack of a real investigation, and 
2) to inform people of the many facts about this crime which have gone unreported in the media, and covered up by the 9/11 Commission.

In a Zogby Poll released September 6, 2007:
51% of Americans Want Congress to Probe Bush/Cheney Regarding 9/11 Attacks 67% also fault 9/11 Commission for not investigating anomalous collapse of World Trade Center 7.
Clearly, a majority of Americans want a real investigation, and Truth about “9/11”.

America: From Freedom to Fascism 
Aaron Russo’s compelling and troubling account of how the wealth of our nation was silently passed from its citizens to a handful of powerful bankers in 1913. That's the year the Federal Reserve Act and the 16th Amendment were introduced, giving a privately held corporation the means to control our finances while ensuring its interest payments through the strong arms of the newly-formed Internal Revenue Service. Ever since then, Russo suggests, Americans have been gradually conditioned to accept fewer freedoms and a lower standard of living... all the while considering debt and servitude as distinctly American values... 110 minutes

#12) The Dave Cline MLK Jr Memorial Peace Summit 
Jan 18th-20th
San Francisco, CA 
Participants include: Cindy Sheehan, DeDe Miller, Tiffany Burns, Jamilla El-Shafei and David Rubinson 

Cindy Sheehan is convening the DAVE CLINE MLK Jr. MEMORIAL PEACE SUMMIT in San Francisco on January 18 and 19th and 20th. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday weekend was chosen by Cindy because he exemplified a uniter, a peace maker and an advocate for non-violent constructive action. 

Space is limited to 125 participants. 

The goal of the summit is to bring together peace and justice leaders and delegates from all across the country so that we can begin to mend divisions and come together in solidarity to end the war and occupation in Iraq . 

The agenda will include analyzing our strengths and weaknesses and our goals. We will be creating a unified strategy and an action plan which will include effective tactics that will put real pressure on our politicians. 

We will work on a plan for a broad-based, grassroots, unified national mobilization in March to mark the 5th anniversary of the invasion of Iraq. The idea of bi-coastal demonstrations in San Francisco and Washington DC will be explored before the peace summit.
