SAN FRANCISCO
MOVIE: The Corporation at the Castro June 4 - 16, 2004 |
Come say hello to the Persons Inc. crew as well as the team from Reclaim Democracy Bay Area in the lobby of the Castro Theatre during the run of THE CORPORATION from June 4 to June 16, 2004. We'll be giving away great stuff like a copy of the book that inspired the movie, tickets to our LITTLE REBELLION in September, and more! Also, stay tuned to learn about special events that we'll be hosting in association with the movie's run in San Francisco.
THE CORPORATION is resonating with audiences all over the world. The feature documentary analyzes the very nature of the corporate institution, its impacts on our planet, and what people are doing in response. Based on Bakan's book "The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power", the film has been generating popular support from street level to the boardrooms of the Corporate Social Responsibilty movement.

| MEET THE AUTHOR: Charles Derber, author of REGIME CHANGE BEGINS AT HOME June 16, 2004, 7:30 PM at Books, Inc. 2275 Market St at 16th (near the Castro Theatre) |
From the author who gave us CORPORATION NATION, Charles Derber, comes a new book, REGIME CHANGE BEGINS AT HOME: WEALTH WE CAN LIVE BY. The book shows that Americans are ruled not just by a particular administration but by a corporate regime, spanning several decades and incorporating both mainstream political parties, which puts the interests of big business ahead of those of ordinary Americans. It offers hope-and detailed strategies and tactics-for defeating the corporate regime and returning America to its people.
Mr. Derber will be appearing in San Francisco on June 16 to promote this new work. You can get more information and purchase a copy of this book (and other great books such as Ted Nace's GANGS OF AMERICA) at the publisher's Web site, Berrett Koehler.
