Events:Democratizing Education Convention IIIStay tuned . . . the Democratizing Education Convention is coming back, this November! NOVEMBER: Global Week of Action - Reloaded!(November 1, 2009)Public education systems, from kindergarten to university, must prioritize emancipating aspects, be free and accessible to all. A democracy only exists, if society consists of emancipated and self-determined individuals, that are able to critically reflect their society, developments and power structures. Any system that doesn’t fulfill these criteria is not a democracy. Organizing Resources:CCFS: Free Speech Organizing ToolkitThe Free Speech Organizing Toolkit is designed to provide campus leaders and free speech supporters with the tools to work with higher education leaders to remove impediments to a marketplace of ideas on their campus.
