Manty Ellis at the Jazz Estate

Since we moved to Milwaukee, I have wanted to make it to the reopened Jazz Estate. finally got a chance this week.

 Clinton and Sanders differ in terms of policy preferences and even more in terms of instincts.     For climate warriors,  I am not sure the work we will have to do differs that much regardless of which one is President.

Either way, we need to organize and advocate.

Looking for something to do this Spring?   Want to help make the world a better place?  Looks like two events are happening.

Democracy Spring consists of a march from Philadelphia to Washington in April.  The focus is on forcing Congress to pass legislation to protect voting rights and to pass a constitutional amendment to undo Citizens United.

In May, it looks as if 350.org and other Climate Change organizations are preparing for "coordinated and bold mass actions".   You can keep up with them here.
