InterOccupy Info
Hi All
NB: To respond to this email please email in...@interoccupy.org. Do not hit reply as the message will get lost in the etherworld.
Michelle Shocked is a musician/singer from Occupy LA and she works with Cheryl, Carlos and others on Occupy Fights Foreclosures, an Actions sub-committee of OLA.
She is dedicating about 15-20 minutes of her upcoming shows to public education on the foreclosure crisis and is looking for foreclosure activists to speak during the performance to people in their community about the crisis as it affects them, both homeowners in foreclosure and homeowners who don't understand how the crisis affects them as well...

Please email me at in...@interoccupy.org if you are qualified to be the Foreclosure Spokesperson for any of these locations or if you are recommending people who could.
I will send you specific dates and venues and put you in touch with her organizers.
Below is a link to a YouTube url for her recent newsletter (aka 'tubeletter',) which has a basic introduction to the concept in the second segment, "Art is Occupation"
Episode 5: The Softbox (her monthly 'Tubeletter') http://youtu.be/5CJxP6Am5M8
She will offer 2 tickets (two activists or one plus a guest) with backstage access and admission to the concert, (and possibly a few tickets to use for fundraising purposes if they work with a non-profit organization...)
Please let me know if you can do this and thank you so much for all you do.
Best,
