March 5: MoveOn panel discussion on netroots

From MoveOn:

Dear MoveOn member,
We wanted to invite you to a panel discussion in New York City tomorrow [Wed] evening on "How the Netroots are Changing Progressive Politics." MoveOn is co-sponsoring this event, which will feature leading progressive thinkers, writers, bloggers, and other activists.

Tomorrow—Wednesday, March 5, 6:30-8:00pm

CUNY Graduate Center, Proshansky Auditorium, 365 Fifth Avenue, between 34th and 35th Sts (one block from the Empire State Building)


The discussion will include analysis of how online organizing is making a difference on key issues such as foreign policy, economics, and constitutional rights. It also will include discussion of the progressive movement as distinct from the Democratic Party. There will be an active question-and-answer component where the audience can get involved.

Below are the details for the event—can you attend?
