"Obama Year One"
Saturday, February 20, 2010 at Roosevelt University, 430 S. Michigan, Room 232, Chicago, a forum was held 'Obama Year One."
- In the aftermath of the historic 2008 elections and in the midst of the deepest economic crisis since the Great Depression, activists and progressives from across movements came together to push for a new New Deal. The new political and economic realities created new opportunities to mobilize for progressive changes including ending wars and militarism; promoting workers' rights; reforming healthcare; and developing economic policies that promote jobs and communities instead of corporate profits. There have been both advances and setbacks in these struggles. One year later, it's time to take stock of lessons learned, evaluate strategic goals, and plan for future campaigns. Join leaders of the labor, peace, immigrant rights, healthcare reform, and economic justice movements in assessing the past year and current political conditions to determine ways we can work together towards progressive change.
The panel included:
- Elce Redmond South Austin Coalition Community Council and Chicago Jobs with Justice
- Amy B. Dean Co-Author of the book A New New Deal: How Regional Activism Will Reshape the American Labor Movement
- Tom Balanoff President of the Service Employees International Union Illinois Council
- Judith LeBlanc Field Organizer for Peace Action; Former National Co-Chair of United for Peace and Justice
- Mel Rothenberg Chicago Political Economy Group; Chicago Jobs with Justice
- Dr. Anne Scheetz Physicians for a National Health Program
