Enviornmental Justice Conference in Flint

March 10 2010

 I am so excited that Flint will be hosting Majora Carter on Saturday March 13th at the Social Justice Now conference at University of Michigan Flint. Majora was the Director of Sustainable South Bronx in New York City which pioneered green collar job training and built green spaces in the Bronx. Check out Majora her powerful speech at Ted http://www.ted.com/talks/majora_carter_s_tale_of_urban_renewal.html  Also featured is Donele Wilkins from Detroiters working for Environmental Justice. There will be several breakout sessions that will address food issues. Registration is FREE at http://umflint.edu /eoi/sjn.htm
