Comment by Erica on July 29, 2010 at 12:09pm: the line-up of workshops for the retreat is looking great!

feminism, anti-racism, environmental justice, food politics and a tour of 91 Albert, workers' rights, queer politics, de-colonization, direct action, health and sexuality... plus lots of time for discussing these and other issues, over food or around the bonfire!
