Re: Chicago fundraiser concert with Anne Feeney: Heartland Cafe, May 18

Why no mention of the "several other progressive groups are sponsoring this concert"? Are they unworthy of mention?
 

Re: Re: Chicago fundraiser concert with Anne Feeney: Heartland Cafe, May 18

As I understand it, Anne Feeney extended a pretty generous offer to split the ticket price with any and all progressive and labor groups who might be interested in turning folks out for this performance.

Both CCAWR and CIMC agreed to do so (a CCAWR volunteer did this rush flyer based on the info as hand ) No other group has posted a notice here that I've seen, so the prinicipal contact (ES) with the artist that CIMC dealt with may be the only person who actually knows what other groups took advantage of this offer.

If your group or union is building turnout, speak up and CIMC gladly will list them as an endorser in the orginial post here. Or cut your own notice and flyer.

It's a co-sponsorship list in formation. I've recently learned that the Industrial Workers of the World, the New World Resource Center and the Chicago Greens are also mobilizing for this event.

To borrow a phrase, don't rant, organize. See you at the Heartland on Sunday!

The IWW is advertising for the event, and she is a member of the Union. Her new album name comes from an old wobbly song from the little red song book called, "dump the bosses off you back"

to see her writing's on the little red song book and her involvment and other artists in the IWW check out
