NEXT MEETING WEDNESDAY November 24th

Open meeting - all are welcome to show up and talk theory...and maybe action!
General Meeting:Wednesday November 24th, 2010.
Time: 7:00 PM
Location: NEWMAN PARK (NE corner of Mission Blvd. and B Street) Hayward, CA
We usually just meet up at Newman Park (it's an incredibly small "park" you can't miss us) and walk together to one of the several establishments in the vicinity.  Last time it was the coffeeshop across the street.  Try to get there by 7:00 because we usually walk to the place we actually meet at a little bit after 7pm.  It's also a short distance from Hayward BART.  Walk East on B Street for two blocks and you'll see Newman Park on your left.

We're reading "A communique from an absent future"

http://wewanteverything.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/communique.pdf

An exerpt from the text: "The university has no history of its own; its history is the history of capital.  Its essential function is the reproduction of the relationship between capital and labor. Though not a proper corporation that can be bought and sold, that pays revenue to its investors, the public university nonetheless carries out this function as efficiently as possible by approximating ever more closely the corporate form of its bedfellows.  What we are witnessing now is the endgame of this process, whereby the façade of the educational institution gives way altogether to corporate streamlining."
