TO GREEN LEFT


You are warmly invited to attend the Gandhi Foundation public AGM in East London on Saturday 10th July, 2pm - 4.30pm. We have two great speakers: Salma Yaqoob and Felix Padel.


Felix Padel is an anthropologist and campaigner for peace, justice and human rights. Felix has spent many years working in East India and will talk about the current military / corporate threat to village communities there, which is sparking Maoist rebellion, and which he has described as "a classic resource war".


Salma Yaqoob is leader of the Respect Party, a Birmingham City Councillor, and an activist in the Stop The War coalition. She is also a qualified psychotherapist and spokesperson for Birmingham Central Mosque. Salma will tell her personal story about why she got involved in the peace and justice movement.
