Hi everyone:

I found a website by that neighbourhood organization I mentioned at the meeting, of local people engaged in self-help, neighbour to neighbour. It’s called Fearless R2W. Here’s the url:

Here you go,

We got a couple more proposals on Feb.1. I’ve started a spreadsheet. As you can see, we have 7 proposals plus one roundtable proposal. In most cases, they tend to address the Wpg strike pretty directly.

Subject: [1919-Conference] proposals received

Hi All:

I was about to start contacting my friends and acquaintances individually to urge them to submit a paper proposal or, better, put together a panel, but I realized that I don’t know who has already submitted a proposal. Would whoever has that information please circulate a list of the names of people who have submitted proposals and the titles of their papers or panels? I am anxious to begin soliciting(!)

Thanks kindly,

julie
