[act-ma] 4/14 SftP: Then & Now - Tuesday , 6:00pm

[Charlie Welch]

A reminder:

Dear Boston-area SftP folks,

As we hope most of you have heard, on *Tuesday, May 14, 6:00-9:00 p.m*. 
at MIT, we are having an event on the history of Science for the People, 
including short presentations by members of the original organization 
and a moderated Q&A/panel discussion.  This will be a chance to have 
some intergenerational dialogue, think and talk about what’s different 
and what’s the same about those times and now, and perhaps distill some 
lessons for organizing from the experiences of the past.  More 
information is in the flyer below.

*We recommend that people read the two attached historical 
accounts* before the event.  One is by Herb Fox, who lived some of the 
early history and plans to participate on May 14, and the other is by 
leftist historian of science Sigrid Schmalzer and colleagues.

We plan to serve some vegetarian food (probably Middle Eastern), 
although not a full dinner. *It is important to RSVP 
<http://bit.ly/sftp-history> so that we’ll know how much food to buy.*

We hope to see you there! *Please spread the word* electronically and/or 
by other means.  The flyer can be printed out.

In solidarity,

Yohan John, Tim LaRock, Abha Sur, Katherine Yih
