<div>Hi Everyone</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Here is an invite for the 23rd July, our next CRD meeting for people to send out to their networks. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Let me know if any of the wording is problematic - and feel free to edit for ease of reference!</div>

<div><strong>CRD MEETING THURSDAY 23rd JULY</strong> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>The next CRD (Campaign for Real Democracy) meeting will be on the eve of Thursday 23rd July, from 6.30pm for a 7pm start. It will be held in the Guernica Tapestry round table space at the Whitechapel Gallery (77-82 Whitechapel High St, E1 Aldgate East tube). For more info, see: <a href="http://www.whitechapelgallery.org/exhibitions/the-bloomberg-commission-goshka-macuga-the-nature-of-the-beast">http://www.whitechapelgallery.org/exhibitions/the-bloomberg-commission-goshka-macuga-the-nature-of-the-beast</a> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>The purpose of CRD is to further develop our network of people to campaign for a genuine, democratic society (meaning: one based on inclusive, consensus based decision-making). Suggested items for the agenda are: (1) short discussion to prepare a bullet point list of the various obstacles to real democracy (2) info sharing about which local campaigns need our support (3) considering prospect of a formal "localists' union" (4) further discussion about possible demands for said union (in particular regarding land tenure) (5) if time (ie. in pub/cafe afterwards ;-) ) further discussion about eg Land Value Taxation (LVT), concept of clean slate/debt cancellation for 2012, making links with student and wider work-place struggles and other important questions relating to political economy and superstructure.. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Please note, this meeting will be recorded as part of the Goshka Macuga's one year long art project "The Nature of the Beast". One creative proposal is that for each obstacle to real democracy identified, people are invited to make a paper "brick" and so create a collage wall to represent our collective response to the question posed. </div>
