Strawberry Cafe is broadening it's night to include groups that compliment each in their wish to bring people together to address world issues at a community level - 'Think globally, act locally';

Zeitgeist Movement; 

Imagine a world without war, poverty, misery or money. Imagine a world where all people work together in a spirit of cooperation and not competition. Imagine this safer saner world and you are closer to understanding what the Zeitgeist Movement is about.

Humanity's Team; 

a global movement with the prime intention of awakening the world to Oneness.

The People's United Community;

in truth we find peace and in unity we can cause change.

Transition Cambridge;

responding to the challenges of "peak oil" and climate change. Changing now because we want to - not waiting until we have to.

Strawberry Fair;

in light of the recent cancellation of this years festival the cafe gives the community a chance to get involved with this free volunteer run community music, entertainments, arts and crafts fair and make sure that this important cultural event takes place next year.

 

(If you're part of a group that you feel also compliments the above groups then please let me know, ta)

C4 is open to anyone who enjoys drawing - from manga to children's comics to graphic novels to one-panel cartoons - and would like to just come and sit down with us to have coffee and draw and talk... There are people from loads of different backgrounds and with very different drawing styles. One person in the group is a freelance comic artist, but beginners are more than welcome! Generally every Saturday session is very flexible, people can drop in at any time and although we often have group projects and activities, there's no compulsion to take part in them. At the end of last year we also had a 24-hour comic event: 5 of us stayed up 24 hours to draw a whole 24-page comic. We'll certainly be doing that again this year.

This weeks Film: Resolved

American high school debating has taken a turn for the speedy. Debates are frequently held at up to 400 words per minute, and this documentary takes a look into this exclusive world. The film takes an interesting turn when two guys from Long beach decide to challenge the debating community with an attempt at Frierian praxis, relating the issues back to their own lives and experiences.

An interesting exploration of a subculture, and some really good themes about challenging entrenched systems and bringing meaning back into politics.

BODY { MARGIN: 8px } .LW-yrriRe { FONT: x-small arial }

 
In suburban Buenos Aires, thirty unemployed auto-parts workers walk into their idle factory, roll out sleeping mats and refuse to leave. All they want is to re-start the silent machines. But this simple act - The Take - has the power to turn the globalization debate on its head.
 
With The Take, director Avi Lewis, one of Canada's most outspoken journalists, and writer Naomi Klein, author of the international bestseller No Logo, champion a radical economic manifesto for the 21st century. But what shines through in the film is the simple drama of workers' lives and their struggle: the demand for dignity and the searing injustice of dignity denied.

Please bring food to share.
 
Agenda:
- Aims of the cafe both long and short term.
- Structure of the cafe, how we organise. This will include a specific proposal brought by Ali and Laura to get the ball rolling (only to get the ball rolling, not as a definitive proposal!), which will be sent out in the next couple of days (to the 'discuss' list). Please everyone take a read when if comes out and come up with your own ideas.
