F-Word Discussion on 10/09/07

Hello FORCEers!
I just wanted to confirm with everyone that this Tuesday, October 9th we will be having an F-Word discussion!
"F-Word" is a facilitated discussion addressing issues surrounding feminism. We will be de-bunking myths about what a feminist is, what we talk about, what we want, ext. The current president of the Long Beach chapter of NOW (National Organization for Women), Yvonne Moore, has agreed to facilitate this discussion and I anticipate it to be very exciting.
One of the purposes of this event is to have it be in a public environment. We will be having the discussion on the grass in the Fine Arts Quad. There will be posted signs around the location with quotes, images, questions, ext to perk interest of students walking by so that they may want to sit down and join the conversation. As you all know, feminists have gotten a bad wrap on this campus due to the imagination of The Union, so this is one way to spread truth.
Again, the Info is
F-Word Discussion
Tuesday, October 9th

PS. IMPORTANT!! ---->
ANYONE who can swing by the WRC and pick up fliers to post around campus will be greatly appreciated in our hearts!!! We have bought some large construction paper to make the signs to post on the grass during the discussion and if you want to come by and make one, PLEASE DO!!! again, our hearts would melt for you. who dosn't want that?
