Message from Bill Nowak:
I recently started working for the Health Care Coordinating Committee (HCCC) of the CWA - Communications Workers of America. The CWA has endorsed the Occupy movement, and one of my first tasks has been to help organize a benefit for Occupy Buffalo.
Some of your courageous and motivated neighbors are going to be spending a very cold winter in Niagara Square raising economic justice issues that are important to all of us.
We are holding a Benefit on Sunday, December 4th from 6pm-9pm at the Pearl Street Grill to help keep them fed, supported, and as warm as possible as they struggle to confront injustice.
