Looking to improve on the Buffalo's current options for dancing to
real
music, leaders of the local progressive nonprofit community have come
together to found The Movement.

Come out on October 3rd to experience the first Movement party at
Langston
Hughes, near Main and High Streets. If you've been looking for a spot
to
enjoy danceable underground hip-hop and soulful beats, you're not
alone.

The Movement seeks to raise Buffalo's movement consciousness while
providing
a space to DANCE! Veteran DJ's Cutler and LoPro will provide the
backbone,
and special guests will play backup.

Nonprofit sponsors include Buffalo First, Buffalo Reuse, PUSH Buffalo,
MAP,
the Coalition for Economic Justice and Ujima Theater. Proceeds will
benefit
the PPG--a network of social change groups in Buffalo--as well as the
Massachusetts Avenue Project.

*2. PUSH Rally for Jobs and Housing*
October 8, 4-6 p.m.
Lafayette Square

PUSH is gathering people from across Buffalo to let City Hall know we
won't
wait another day for its Anti-Poverty Platform to be adopted. We know
the
Platform is the right way to go because community problems need
community
generated solutions. Please come join us and let the City know that
caring
about its neighborhoods means putting people first. *PUSH has asked
the UB
Lawyers Guild to provide legal observation. If you would like to be a
legal
observer at the rally, we will be providing a short legal observer
training session before the rally.
We will be meeting at 2:45 in the lobby of O'Brian and leave for the
rally from there at 3:20pm.
Rides to the rally will be available for those who need one.
*.* Individuals who attended the legal observation training last
semester
are encouraged to test out their skills. The rally is currently
permitted;
no civil disobedience is expected.

Due to the PUSH Rally for Jobs and Housing, we are rescheduling our
