Netroots Nation Salon: Saturday 05/16

So I couldn’t be more excited for Saturday’s Netroots Nation Salon Series.

Netroots Nation Chicago
Pushing a Progressive Agenda in the Obama Administration
Saturday, May 16, 8 p.m. (doors at 6 p.m.)
No Exit Cafe, 6970 North Glenwood, Chicago
“With a Democratic president, House and Senate, we have a historic opportunity for progressive change. But how do liberals and progressives make sure their voice is heard? This panel will discuss constructive ways of pushing a progressive agenda and holding our elected officials’ feet to the fire.”

Panelists include:
Veronica Arreola, Viva La Feminista
Greg Palast, BBC, author of Armed Madhouse
Rick Perlstein, author of Nixonland, Before The Storm
Matthew Filipowicz, Huffington Post, Headzup.tv
Ed Yohnka, ACLU-IL, Director of Communications And Public Policy

Admission is free. Dinner and drinks available for purchase. A Drinking Liberally cocktail hour to follow the event.

If you’re in the Chicago area, please come out and watch me try not to make a fool of myself with a bunch of panelists who are much smarter than me!
