Environmental Justice Green for All gathering in Memphis 4/4-4/6
Van Jones, one of the co-founders of ColorOfChange.org, has embarked upon an important new effort that connects the wave of interest in preventing the destruction of our planet to creating opportunity for low-income communities of color . It's called Green for All. If you've heard the term "green collar job," then you've gotten a taste of what Green for All is about.

On April 4-6 in Memphis, TN, Green for All will hold its first public gathering called "The Dream Reborn." It's a chance to learn more about Green for All's vision for a "green economy strong enough to lift people out of poverty," and hear from leading practitioners in the green jobs movement.

Learn more about this important gathering and register today, here:

Given that the event is being held on the 40th Anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s assassination and in Memphis, hotels are filling up fast. Also, the early registration and scholarship deadline is this Friday, March 14th. So please act now if you're interested!

Thank You and Peace,

-- James Rucker, and the rest of the www.ColorOfChange.org team
