DEMOCRACY SCHOOL: "Why Democratic Self-Government is Impossible When Corporations Wield Constitutional Rights Against Communities to Deny The Rights of People" [Learn More]

The Democracy School Curriculum will be changing for 2009. In addition to a new curriculum, the material will be covered in two days instead of three. Dates for the 2009 Schools are April 17-18 and November 13-14. Contact Shannon, 415.575.5440, with any questions about the new schedule.

"If you take no other training this year, do the Democracy School. It is a superlative unfolding revelation of how corporations have hijacked democracy. It meticulously deconstructs the historical arc that brought us to this precipice. But most importantly, it then departs into the highly pragmatic and inspiring work now underway that is slowly turning the tide. . . This Second American Revolution may be the most important political work going on anywhere in the country or the world."

"Democracy School was a mind-blowing experience. During the School, I was forced to come to grips with the understanding that I really knew very little about the true structure of law that controls our activism. Democracy School is a must for everyone who seeks to be liberated from our defensive, after-the-fact reactive organizing strategies."
