RE SF Freedom School

ten spaces left!!

San Francisco Freedom School begins July 7th and runs for seven consecutive 
Saturdays through August 18th (10 AM - 4 PM, pot luck lunch, 152 Church 
Street at Market).  We study the Civil Rights Movement as a case study of 
how social movements happen. (As Jean Anyon argues in Radical Possibilities, 
there can't be any real progressive education reform unless in the context 
of a social movement).

Learn the lessons of the Civil Rights Movement IN DEPTH from veterans of 
that struggle, activities and films. The sessions are FREE! -- free 
textbooks too!   All ages welcome.   We have an extensive film and book 
library from which you can borrow throughout the year.  Get SFUSD 
professional development credit.
