Hello,

My name is Jenta and I am helping with the A World Beyond Capitalism
Conference (AWBC) 2005.  The AWBC is An Annual International Multiracial
Alliance Building Peace Conference. I am contacting you at this time
just to let you know about this wonderful, international, grassroots
networking opportunity!

The conference begins August 26th and ends August 28th, which is the
anniversary of the day on which Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered
his "I have a dream" speech.  It will take place at Portland State
University. 

This is the first year of this historic, annual peace conference and we
are honored to have Genny Nelson, Co-founder of Sisters of the Road, and
Romeo Sosa, Keynote Speaker Director of Voz, Proyecto de Educacion de
Derechos Laborales, Workers' Rights Education Project among our keynote
speakers.

We are looking forward to an incredible alliance building experience.  

I am taking this moment to encourage you to be a part of this
international conference. More information is available at:

intentional 
community groups, organizations, and small businesses
who want to set up an information table to share or sell items.

For book stores or other non-corporate, non-government businesses that
wish to set up and sell items, the cost is also on a sliding scale
