Don’t Gamble with Women’s Rights …
Come to Las Vegas for the National NOW Conference!
The 2004 National NOW Conference will be held in Las Vegas, the weekend of July 16-18, 2004. Join NOW members across the country for three days of fun and friends, fast-paced workshops, great speakers and entertainers, skill-building sessions, special interest caucuses, and, of course, sharing stories about this spring’s March for Women’s Lives.
Speakers and guests include former Democratic presidential candidate Carol Moseley Braun; groundbreaking scientist and diversity expert Dr. Donna J. Nelson; feisty author and radio host Laura Flanders (her new book, The “W” Factor, is just out); and writer/comedian Wendy Shanker, whose new book is The Fat Girls Guide to Life. Cris Williamson will be performing in concert with SONiA (of disappear fear).
A Young Feminist Caucus is being planned by NOW’s new Young Feminist Task Force, and there will be voter outreach training. If you are ready to translate feminist issues into action by participating in workshops dealing with war and women, marriage equality, emergency contraception, affordable housing, the global economy, AIDS, drugs, poverty, workers, reproductive health, a new Violence Against Women Act and more…make plans now to spend July 16-18 with your NOW sisters in the glittery city.
