Dear friends & family,
If you live in SLC, you've recently received an official-looking envelope from the city. It *is* official, and very important: an opinion poll regarding Salt Lake's stance on Citizens United, the Supreme Court's decision that gave corporations the status of personhood and designated money a form of free speech. Please take the time to vote and return it. 500 other cities have spoken out against corporatocracy. Let's add our city to that list.
Weekly Reader below: highlighted events of the eight-day week at hand.
The September CATALYST is on the newsstands, or you can read it by clicking here. Read about the Sugarhood homestead built by James and Michelle Loomis; how to make bokashi compost; considering carp for dinner; yoga; the upcoming performing dance season; climate change Action Camp; and more.
