"The Original Halloween: Samhana, the Celtic New Year"

Kevin Joyce was active in the Irish Republican Clubs of North America for a
quarter century and served on its executive board. The IRC was a support
group for the Workers' Party of Ireland and the official IRA. He will
discuss the historic and cultural roots of this holiday in Celtic Ireland,
Britain and Europe.

In the '60s, Kevin worked in the Congress of Racial Equality, with the Poor
Peoples' Campaign in Buffalo, and in VISTA (civilian alternative service) as
a conscientious objector to the war in Vietnam. He has been an Service
Employees International Union member for 35 years and a staff field
representative for the Union for 25 years.
