Why I'm going…
"Last summer's conference was so amazingly energetic. I've never been to a
conference with such a high level of energy, with the exception of the World
Social Forum. Another thing I appreciated was the diversity. I had the
opportunity to meet with union leaders from Latin America, student leaders
from Pennsylvania, and people involved in activities from around the country.
I found that to be very valuable."
