Words Sporeprint Infoshop and a photo of a guy aiming a gun outside at another person

Tuesday, April 9, 2019, 7:00 – 10:00 PM
Ken Loach’s Land and Freedom is a great introductory dramatization of the Spanish Civil War: the ideological, political and, ultimately, military conflict between the various factions, parties, militias, armies and governments of the Republican, Anarchist, and Communist resistance. (in English, 109 minutes) We'll project this on an approximately 8 foot space.  Popcorn, coffee, tea, and other refreshments will be provided. Feel free to bring anything for yourself or to share. BYOB!  Donations accepted, not required.  Sponsored by Columbus Anti-Racist Action.   
Location:  Sporeprint Infoshop, 979 E. Fifth Ave., Columbus.

Climate Change Work Plan Action

Saturday, April 6, 1pm
Stratford Ecological Center, 3083 Liberty Rd, Delaware
We want to plunge into stronger support for local farmers, as well as to address the related issues of sprawl, traffic and a more sustainable transportation system. We will start our time by hearing from Josh Lapp from Columbus Transit, which is seeking ways to create just such a transportation vision--which can include an express bus system, bus lanes, increasing ride-share options--and eventually , if we are lucky, a light rail system for our area.Please join us as we reconvene, gather these task forces back together and hear about their on-going plans, and consider new transportation ideas and ways of addressing sprawl. We welcome--and appreciate--continued involvement. Please bring a friend ... and spread the word. Hosted by Sustainable Delaware.
