SUMMARY:Camp Wellstone
DESCRIPTION:Begun in early 2003\, Camp Wellstone (CW) is open to anyone interested in gaining practical skills in progressive political action. We train candidates\, campaign workers\, and organizers how to win progressive change. Camp Wellstones have been held in several states across the country and there are over 30\,000 Camp Wellstone alumni in all 50 states! \nDuring CW\, we provide focus areas based on your role in progressive organizing\, each with a distinctive curriculum taught by some of the nation’s leading experts in grassroots politics and organizing. We draw from Paul and Sheila Wellstone’s innovative approach to politics – something we call the Wellstone Triangle. The three elements of the triangle are: progressive public policy\, which lays out an agenda for action; grassroots community organizing\, which builds a constituency to fight for change; and grassroots electoral politics\, which provides tools for influencing policymakers and holding them accountable. \nIf you’re interested\, contact Dianne McGuire at 630-420-8502.

SUMMARY:NTDO Monthly Meeting & Community Forum: Thomas Armstrong
DESCRIPTION:Come join us for our monthly 7:30pm meeting… a little bit of business\, always an informative speaker on an interesting\, relevant topic\, and a time to meet and socialize with progressives who want to make positive changes in local and national politics. \nFebruary is going to be great!  In honor of Black History Month\, we are proud and honored to welcome Tom Armstrong\, NTDO Democratic election judge and author of Autobiography of a Freedom Rider (published in May\, 2011) as our featured speaker. \nIn 1955\, Mr. Armstrong\, born in Mississippi\, was 14 years old at the same time as Emmitt Till\, another 14-year-old visiting Mississippi from Chicago\, who was kidnapped\, tortured and murdered for whistling at a white woman. Three years later\, as a Tougaloo College student\, Mr. Armstrong became active in the civil rights struggle of that time. At the request of the Illinois Arts Council\, Mr. Armstrong has been speaking to civic and community groups throughout Illinois. \nAmazon Book Description \nIn the Segregated Deep South\, When Lynching and Klansmen and Jim Crow laws ruled\, there stood a line of foot soldiers ready to sacrifice their lives for the right to vote\, to enter rooms marked ‘White Only\,’ and to live with simple dignity. They were called Freedom Riders\, and Thomas M. Armstrong was one of them. This is his story. \n\n\n\nAutobiography of a Freedom Rider details Armstrong’s burning need to create social change for his fellow black citizens. This richly woven memoir\, which traces back to his great-grandparents as freed slaves\, examines the history of the Civil Rights Movement\, the devastating personal repercussions Armstrong endured for being a champion of those rights\, the sweet taste of progressive advancement in the past fifty years\, and a look ahead at the work still to be done. \nWe also expect many candidates for the upcoming consolidated election in April to be there\, as well.

SUMMARY:The Democratic Party of DuPage County President's Day Gala
DESCRIPTION:The DuPage Democrats are preparing to celebrate the biggest day of their calendar year\, the Annual Presidents’ Day Gala at the Drury Lane Oakbrook on Feb 10th. And they have lots to celebrate! \n“Just 5 short years ago at this time\,” points out Chairman Bob Peickert\, “only 18 precincts out of 740+ actually had a Democrat they could go to with any of their concerns.” At this year’s Gala\, over 17 representatives from United States Congress to DuPage Forest Preserve will be in attendance to herald the historical 2012 election in which DuPage voters finally drew a big blue swath across a large majority of its 750 precincts. \nExecutive Director Amy Rohrer had this to say about their success. “Every year we have attracted more volunteers\, more dollars\, more press. When we turned some of these races over in November\, the Democrats who had been undercover in their seemingly ‘red’ neighborhoods finally saw that the tide had turned and contacted us.” She further pointed out that 2012 was the first time that DuPage had ever re-elected a Democratic President. \nOn Sunday February 10th\, Former Mayor of Philly and Governor of Pennsylvania\, Ed Rendell–no stranger to inter and intra-party struggles and challenges–will be in town to talk with the gathered Gala group. Often a controversial voice on MSNBC\, Rendell also has a new book whose title presents a provocative premise: A Nation of Wusses: How America’s Leaders Lost the Guts to Make Us Great \nFormer Governor Rendell has been in politics for nearly 35 years in many roles and was the prototype for the Eric Baker character in the West Wing TV series.
