Hi all,
Just a quick reminder of this Sunday's (May 9th) SAPAC meeting.
Before or after Mother's Day festivities, come by to Mary Anne's at
812
W. Van Buren, #2G. for a SAPAC potluck lunch and meeting.
Agenda items for the meeting include:
1) Political work on restoring civil liberties: SAPAC is exploring
joining a coalition of national and local groups seeking to pass
legislation that will rollback the loss of civil liberties being faced
by immigrant populations. Samia Khan from Illinois Coalition of
Immigrant and Refugee Rights will be speaking about their initiatives.
2) Planning for India and Pakistan Independence Day events
3) Planning/update on the "Speak Up! Act Up" forum being cosponsored
by
Breakthrough. An event to engage youth impacted by immigration
policies
into the political process
4) Building alliances with people's movement's in India
5) Planning/update on South Asian Literary Forum for Spring 2005
6) 3rd I update: Screening indie South Asian films
These are just a few of the things we will be discussing.
