> The desire to organize a conference started after the planned J28 Move-In Festival fell apart, the necessity arose when folks at Inter-Occupy started seeking endorsements of “Occupy National Gathering” conference of theirs happening in Philadelphia on June 28th-July 4th. Inter-Occupy is organizing what seems to be a second Constitutional Philadelphia Convention, with two “representatives” from every occupation, and urge that Occupy adopt a new “social contract.” With electoral politics heating up and eager to coopt the energy of Occupy, it’s vital that we push the Occupy movement in a more radical direction.

> The purpose of the conference is to provide skills, tactics, strategy, and vision within and across occupations. The Long Live the CommuneConference will explore how nonprofits coopt social movements, the criminalization of pre-crime and radical politics, radical history, and the crisis of capitalism this time, among more.
> 
> The Events Committee is responsible for actions, workshops, shows, teach-ins, etc. If you would like to perform or organize any kind of action, you should speak with us.
