South Central Michigan Greens to Meet 1-3pm
Saturday, April 20 at Jackson Coffee Company
============================================
The South Central Michigan Greens local will hold its monthly meeting
1-3pm on Saturday, April 20 at the downtown Jackson Coffee Company (201
South Mechanic Street in Jackson).
The meeting is an event on Facebook:
The local serves Jackson, Calhoun, and Hillsdale Counties. But anyone
who supports the Green Party platform of Peace, Planet, and People Over
Profit -- or wants to find out about the #realDeal, the Green Party's
decade-old original version of the Green New Deal -- is welcome to attend.
We will discuss upcoming local activities and opportunities to get
involved -- including a pollution remediation proposal being started in
Jackson this spring, proposed natural-gas mega-plants in the area, and
this year's spring Labor History Walk in Marshall on Saturday, May 4,
the weekend after international Labor Day (May 1).
Co-founder John Anthony La Pietra will report on a celebration of "the
other MLK Day" held April 4 at the Marshall District Library. Local
officers and by-laws, and the results of the recent statewide membership
meeting March 16 in Muskegon, are also expected to be on the agenda.
A map of the location is available here:
