The first few days of the US Social Forum in Detroit have been electric! AREA has been documenting workshops, marches, and what folks are up to in Notes from the Forum.
So far, we've got media from the ARC09 workshop on movement building in Chicago, reflections and notes from the Excluded Workers' Congress, notes and audio from a workshop by Racewire and Feministing on new media and gender and racial justice, reports and photos from the opening festivities. Today we're working on recording audio from a conversation between Grace Lee Boggs and Immanuel Wallerstein, as well as reporting back from the Juvenile Justice People's Movement Assembly and reflections on running the Social Forum's Tent City.
