<html><body><span style="font-family:Verdana; color:#000000; font-size:10pt;"><div>I was at the Unity planning mtg tonight. Please do not reply all ... let's bring some clarity and simplicity and not glut our emails so that we don't have time to actually read. You can reply to me and I'll get you on the smaller distribution list for planning. Write Unity in the subject line.</div><div><br></div><div><b>The next planning mtg</b> is Thursday at 5pm, most likely at 26 west st, 2nd floor.<br></div><div><br></div><div><b>DEC 3rd, SAT </b>I'll be at dewey from 8:30-10am to help unaffiliated people get connected. anyone else wanna join me?<br></div><div>10-noon dispersed Actions at 'hubs' or street corners.</div><div>1-4pm Rally at Copley</div><div>5pm GA (TBA)<br></div><div><br></div><div>Yes, plz to <b>GA at Colpey</b> .. did GA approve of the idea? what time? I propose 5pm some people believe we may loose people, I think we may and get more and it would also, give people a chance to look around (at existing organizations who are participating and working groups and others with tables, who have a spot on the plaza etc) as well as giving more people time to arrive.</div><div><br></div><div><b>RE OTH, t</b>he report (after the official meeting some stayed to plan the Copley part) so, OTH report was at present they are not part of it due to feeling they don't support going to Copley ... they of course are welcome. OTH is organizing buses to go to DC for 'Take back the Capitol' Dec 5th-9th*notes below.</div><div><br></div><div><b>AND PLEASE RE emails </b>.. the notes will come out and there will be a '[street] list' note from Brett (maybe John) .. if you want to be on the detailed emails about planning get on that and don't fill our email boxes with minutia. We agreed at the meeting, that this smaller email distribution list will email back and forth and email the official 'streets list' 2x per day (ideally). So, when you get the official email (will have [Street] in the subject line) then reply to that person and they will include you on the minutia discussion list. Then, occasionally, when there is real content or an important new idea one of us will email the [street] list and those of you who want in, can reply to that person and get on the new thread. Thus the [street] list will go out with content and the discussions will go on, and report to the whole.</div><div>This is also important as many new people (from existing organizations) will be added to the [street] list, by dan .. people who wanna join and who may or may not want to be part of the planning .. they have their own list and their own planning to do. So, [street] is for real info and not discussion.<br></div><div><br></div><div><b>Canvassing</b> Pasted from Ben: <a class="nounderline" href="webmail.php?login=1#">occupyprospecthill@gmail.com</a> email him directly if you want to<b> canvas.</b></div><div><br></div><div><b>8:30am at Dewey:</b> And I'll meet people at Dewey prior to help orient people who don't know what to do, who didn't want get on the google docs or who R coming to this late .. I'll be there by 8:30am-10am, I believe Dan will provide us with a most updated google list of events, locations etc so, you can join an organized hub or create one on the spot.</div><div><br></div><div><b>RE permits</b>, Katie said something like, we must march from Dewey since we have established a precedent for not having permits, and in this strange world that gives our hub friends some kind of protection. someone from a labor organization is talking w. the police and will get back to us, he believes we are ok at Copley (assuming nonviolence etc) and there is no or little promise for other locations RE police behavior.<br></div><div><br></div><div><b>Other basic info </b>(and plz read the mtg notes for more clarity) ... we are the <b>#99 for twitter</b> .. the march as a whole is not 'Occupy Boston' as we are a Unity march and are including many, independent organization, acting autonomously. OB is one of many joining in Unity.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Google organizing tool:</b></div><div>As I'm sure many of you already know, we are having a Unity March
on December 3rd. As part of that event we are having people do their own
actions during the morning hours. There's a lot of different
possibilities, your imagination is really the limit. Teach-ins, street theater, workshops and discussions have already been discussed. If you
have a new idea, please put it on this list so we know what is going on:</div> <div><a target="_blank" href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ah3pFB7dtoJJdERLcDU3WG1WMHpaSDZkeE03X1d4SHc&hl=en_US#gid=0">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ah3pFB7dtoJJdERLcDU3WG1WMHpaSDZkeE03X1d4SHc&hl=en_US#gid=0</a></div><div><br></div><div><b>What OTH is doing Dec 5-9th</b>.

David reached out to me about this, earlier today, and I think it is a great idea.<br><br>If facilitators consent, we can decide tomorrow who presents the proposal, at GA.<br><br><br>Brian - what's the latest on OTH joining the march?<br> <br>Is anyone from OB puling a permit for this one, or are we occupying Copley?<br><br>Are we using people's mic? I would advocate that we do so. <br><br>Can we create a GA Facilitation team from all (or many of) the groups represented in the day's activities? I would lend a hand to help coordinate, if another had is needed.<br> <br><br>GM<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Nov 29, 2011 at 12:18 AM, Brian K <span dir="ltr"><<a target="_blank" href="mailto:bdubkwob@gmail.com">bdubkwob@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"> Hey facilitation and other folks,<div><br></div><div>Just wanted to let you know about an exciting idea that came up in the Dec 3rd Unity march meeting at 26 West st a few hours ago.</div><div><br></div><div>For those who don't know, This is the ad-hoc working group organizing the distributed march which is starting from various points and constituencies (BU students, Building trades workers, Ocupemos El Barrio, DA folks, Dewey square folks, FSU/teachers, etc). Each group is going to march from some point in the city towards Copley Square where we will converge together for a large Unity rally for the 99%. </div> <div>There will be people from many different backgrounds and sectors of the 99% and it is a unique opportunity to welcome them all into the movement, united together. </div><div><br></div><div>The exciting idea was: why not do Saturday's GA in Copley Square? We will have lots of energy, lots of people, including new people, and we can immediately include them in the democratic process so they can participate in shaping the direction of the movement. (Also, we need to practice doing GAs in places other than Dewey. And in spaces larger than Dewey's GA space.) </div> <div>Finally, mass support and participation of this kind is exactly what we will need to figure out what to do about the impending police crackdown, among other burning issues for the growth and development of our movement. </div> <div><br></div><div>So, I think/hope there will be a proposal at tomorrow's GA about moving Saturday's to Copley Square. I cannot be at GA tomorrow because I will be at an OEB working group meeting, but my formulation of the proposal would be something minimal, simple, and easy-to-pass like: </div> <div><br></div><div>"In order to welcome the participants of the distributed unity march of December 3rd into our movement, Occupy Boston will hold its regularly-scheduled General Assembly for that day in Copley Square."</div> <div><br></div><div>Is someone else willing/able/already planning to bring a proposal of this nature to GA tomorrow?</div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Brian</div> </font></span><br>_______________________________________________<br> Facilitation mailing list<br> <br> Post: <a target="_blank" href="mailto:Facilitation@lists.occupyboston.org">Facilitation@lists.occupyboston.org</a><br> List info: <a href="https://lists.mayfirst.org/mailman/listinfo/facilitation" target="_blank">https://lists.mayfirst.org/mailman/listinfo/facilitation</a><br> <br> To Unsubscribe<br> Send email to: <a target="_blank" href="mailto:Facilitation-unsubscribe@lists.occupyboston.org">Facilitation-unsubscribe@lists.occupyboston.org</a><br> Or visit: <a href="https://lists.mayfirst.org/mailman/options/facilitation/gsjmurphy%40gmail.com" target="_blank">https://lists.mayfirst.org/mailman/options/facilitation/gsjmurphy%40gmail.com</a><br> <br> You are subscribed as: <a target="_blank" href="mailto:gsjmurphy@gmail.com">gsjmurphy@gmail.com</a><br> <br></blockquote></div><br> <hr>_______________________________________________<br>
