Feel overwhelmed by the huge number of events and workshops happening at the US Social Forum? So were we! So we put our heads together and came up with a list of recommendations. If you're at the Forum and want a printed palm card of this list, drop by our table and we'll be happy to hand you one in person! We also have a longer list of Eco Justice-specific workshops you can check out as well. Workshops in bold are the ones we're putting on as an organization.
