A range of issues including AIDS, homelessness, feminism, and militarism, will be addressed from a youth perspective, with a focus on the underlying problem which we all face: the status of youth in our society. There are a variety of ways to participate: Anyone under 25 can join the Summit Organizing Committee, which oversees Summit logistics, such as media, fundraising, etc. Commitments are flexible. Anyone under 25 can propose to lead a workshop. Workshops are divided into two categories: skills (like "Using Computers to Organize") and issues (Youth, AIDS, and Activism") - please indicate which category your workshop would belong in. Any organization can become a Summit co-sponsor. This requires a donation of either money or some type of resource (postage, copying, etc.) and in return the organization's name will be listed on all Summit materials. Any organization can, for a $10-$15 dobation reserve table space at the Summit. Let us know if you have any further questions or would like to get involved in any of the above ways. Please note: CompuServe messages sometimes have trouble getting through to Hampshire, if this happens, send to jsgf-AT-umich.edu - they're not having this problem. - Kate Barnhart, National Coordinator, 1996 Youth Summit --- from list marxism-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu --- ------------------
