THE COMMUNITY CHURCH OF BOSTON
SUNDAY SPEAKERS FORUM presents...

Sunday, March 13, 2011
11:00am

GRACE ROSS
"Main Street Smarts: Who Got Us Into this Economic Mess and How We Get
Through It"

Grace will explore the story of Main Street, what we've experienced and the
challenges for reversing the economy for the regular people of
Massachusetts. She will explore the need to reengage in a political process
that is supposed to be for the people. In the long term ramp up to the
market crash and the immediate foreclosure crisis the people were force fed
the mythology of free markets and supply side economics, we need to equip
ourselves with the tools to fight back against these lies.

Grace Ross brings 25 years of experience working with the grassroots and
creating policy change from the municipal all the way up to the national and
international political arenas. Among her many campaigns Grace is currently
actively involved with the Mass Alliance Against Predatory Lending, fighting
to keep people in their homes.
