The People's Summit
The Summit will take place at the University of Baltimore School of Law, 1415 Maryland Avenue (corner of Maryland and Mount Royal). Opening remarks begin at 10:00am. The workshops end at 6pm with tabling and networking to continue.
The People's Summit will bring together community and activist leaders to reflect on the successes and challenges of 2003 and to plan for 2004.

#file_1#NCOR
In years past, this conference has played a significant role in coordinating a dialogue between activist groups, and sparking in-depth discussion of the strategies and tactics of our various social justice movements. This year, NCOR again envisions being a forum for cutting edge discussion for people of all different levels of involvement. Last year, over 1,000 people converged on Washington, DC for a weekend of experience, discussion, planning, and protest.
Dozens of organizations and bookstores will have tables and information available, and films will also be shown, but networking, lectures, and workshops are the highlight of the weekend. This year's workshop listing includes a broad range of topics, including animal rights, public relations for activists, globalization, anarchism, independent music, electoral strategies, and a number of discussions about various issues and tactics of interest to activists.
Registration is $10, or you can opt to volunteer to help out in exchange. See www.organizedresistance.org/index.shtml for more information, including directions to the campus and a complete listing of events.
