TRIP TO PLYMOUTH ROCK TO CELEBRATE THANKSGIVING WITH INDIGENOUS PEOPLES

On thanksgiving day there will be a caravan of people taking two buses to plymouth rock to join a group of indigenous peoples in a social, dinner, and thanksgiving ceremony.  The first bus is full but we need funds for the second bus.  Many immigrant rights activists and occupiers want to go but do not have the funds to get on the bus.  one bus ticket is 35 dollars.  we are asking the GA to sponsor at least 10 people to go on this trip.  That is a total of $350.  We will be departing from broadway and 17th st, close to the new school occupation, on thursday morning @ 530am.  Please be there early or on time.  Please dress extra warm because the weather there is more intensely cold due to being on the coast.
