On September 24th and 25th finance ministers, central bank governors
and heads of state from the worlds 19 largest economies will arrive in
Pittsburgh to discuss world economic policy. This group is also known
as the G-20. Come to the Wooden Shoe Saturday, August 15th at 5pm for
a presentation from some Pittsburgh locals who are organizing protests
against those meetings. For those unfamiliar with the G20 or the
resistance against it, this presentation will answer questions like
What is the G20? Why should we protest the meetings? and What is being
done already to resist the G20? Stay for a discussion afterward where
we can decide what we as Philadelphia-area residents can do to help
and what we might expect to get out of doing so.
