Hi all,<br><br>I'm sending an e-mail to remind you that Dorchester People For Peace is holding a holiday party in our honor this Monday. They're experienced activists who like what we're doing, and this party is a great opportunity to talk to people in a relaxed setting, and also get some hot food in our bellies. Let me know if you're planning on coming; they're excited about hosting, and they will make extra food if they know in advance a big crowd is going to come.<br>
<br>It's 6-9pm at the Vietnamese American Community Center, 42 Charles St., Fields Corner (just behind the Red Line station). Forward this to everyone; I've only sent it to the groups I'm actively part of to avoid being spammy, but I do want everyone to know about it.<br>

Hi all,<br><br>A wonderful local anti-war and anti-racist organization called Dorchester People for Peace is hosting a holiday party in our honor! They'll be giving us an award, and also giving us the gift of their space for an evening. Anyone involved in Occupy is invited; this will be a great night to relax with hot food and good company, including some experienced organizers who are really into what we're doing.<br>


<br>They do want an estimate for how many people we'll bring, so reply to me directly if you can make it. Feel free to forward this far and wide. Details are below; it's only a block from a red line stop.<br><div class="gmail_quote">
