*THIS IS NOT A MEETING * No Program. No Speaker. Just Us. For Justice.

*As always, we'll help you meet people - so no worries if you're new to
SoJust*. Plus, we'll have "I'm Looking For" and "Ask Me About" tags, a
Catalyst Corner staffed by our amazing STARZ (regular attendees), our
wildly popular Jobs Board, and Action Stations to make it even more likely
you'll find the right connections.* Want to cross-promote your events and
campaigns?* Looking for like-minded progressives to hang out with in
Boston? Are you new to the area and looking for groups to get involved in?
Psyched about building strong cross-issue coalitions? Join us!* Yes, we
mean you.* Members are all ages, races, genders, sexual orientations,
levels of activism and professions. Some just moved to Boston and others
were born here. We hope you see someone like yourself and meet someone you
otherwise wouldn't have.

*Hey Organizers!* If you're involved with a group or project and want to
spread the word, bring flyers for the free lit table. Action Stations - if
you have an action that can be done in 2 minutes (sign a petition) or
within 2 weeks of the event (attend rally, stuff mass mailing) bring it so
SoJusters can get connected to you and your work. This is not a typical
tabling event - there will be lots of opportunity to schmooze and network!
Email robbie AT robbiesamuels DOT com for more information about the Action
Stations.
