Reclaiming the Commons: The Struggle for a People's Space, from Ann Arbor to Benton Harbor September 19, 2010

A discussion with local community activists.

Join the Washtenaw Reds in a discussion of the struggle for the commons, from the 13th-century Magna Carta and Charter of the Forest, to the District Library Lot in Ann Arbor and the 'Golf War' in Benton Harbor, Michigan.

"The Commons" is a term for resources collectively owned or shared between people. Such resources, "held in common", can be anything from land to natural resources to even software.

The discussion will be held in the 3rd floor freespace of the downtown Ann Arbor District Library.
