Occupy Santa Fe to Host Workshops, Teach-Ins This Weekend
By Alexa Schirtzinger
Occupy Wall Street may be old news, but Occupy Santa Fe, now semi-permanently ensconced in the Railyard Park, is expanding in new directions.
This weekend, a series of workshops and teach-ins on a variety of topics will take place in and around the Railyard.
“I don’t think we’re going to stop with the protests and rallies, but, clearly, a very important next step is to really educate ourselves…on the myriad issues we’re facing as a society and work towards solutions that are arising out of the people rather than from the top down,” Donato Jaggers, “one of the many organizers” for OSF, says. “This weekend is just scratching the surface.”
Below is a tentative schedule; check Occupy Santa Fe’s Facebook page or website for additional details.
Saturday
11 am – Inclusivity and diversity workshop with Jessica Lawless
Warehouse 21
1-3 pm – Presentation on Los Alamos National Laboratory by Jay Coghlan, executive director of Nuclear Watch New Mexico
Warehouse 21
3-4 pm – Discussion on climate change with Jeff Haas
Railyard Park
Sunday
1 pm – Nonviolent direct action training with Erica Kay
The Tutorial School

Can't you losers get it through your scraggly, unwashed heads that the 60's ended DECADES ago? I thought this "occupy" BS was supposed to be a protest that other people have more money than you do. (Pssst. It's because they work for a living. The Rainbow Family's pay scale is exceeding low, and promotion opportunities are scarce...) How do tiresome, predictable leftist rants about nuclear energy, and more diversity BS, relate to the economy? (And if diversity in and of itself is so important, why is Occupy so gosh darned WHITE?) The non-violence seminar should be spellbinding, however. Let's all get trained in advanced techniques in how NOT to punch someone! How about a "Personal Sanitation 101" seminar instead?
