Liberty Tree Foundation

Foundation for the Democratic Revolution

Bringing the inspiration of the Wisconsin protest wave -- from the occupation of the state's capitol to the recent national Democracy Convention in Madison -- to the planned October 2011 occupation of Freedom Plaza in D.C.: 

 

  • Ben Manski -- Executive Director of the Liberty Tree Foundation (http://www.libertytreefoundation.org) and cofounder of the Wisconsin Wave (http://www.WisconsinWave.org). He is a member of the Move to Amend Executive Committee (http://www.MovetoAmend.org).
  • Margaret Flowers -- Nationally recognized Medicare for all, single-payer advocate and serves on the executive board of the October 2011 Coalition (www.october2011.org).
  • Brian Anders -- Homelessness and low-income housing activist and former coordinator of the Washington Peace Center. He is an active member of EmpowerDC (http://www.empowerdc.org/).
  • Emma's Revolution -- Dancing on the edge of folk and pop there's a revolution: emma's revolution. "Bold, profound, moving, hilarious and transformative." The sound of passion in "deftly-turned phrases," songs imbued with hope, warmth and the "power and drive" to turn tears into laughter, cynicism into action. (http://emmasrevolution.com/)
