Midnight-1.30am Debate: 1968: STREET FIGHTING YEAR: Did the 1968 political protests and cultural upheavals have a positive or negative effect on both mainstream society and current political and cultural activists? What are the lessons to be learned?
We will commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Grosvenor Square riots and 1968 in general with a panel of 1968 radicals and current activists including Ian Bone, (founder of Class War and author of 'Bash the Rich') and Karen Moller (author of 'Technicolor Dreamin'), Jon Fenton (radical musician of the time), Katrina Forrester (activist in 'Plane Stupid'), and Chris Mounsey (founder, Libertarian Party).

4am Presentation - Know Peace - The hip-hop bard presents his experiences of living as an eco-warrior in Tasmania's amazing remaining old growth rainforest

5-7am Open Mic: 'WE ARE THE CHANGE' - hosted by Viziondanz and Perciphone
Calling all your children hiding out inside your adult bodies!
What would you say/give to our world if you KNEW you wouldn't be judged?
We ARE one, separated physically in such a way, that we all get to find out a little
about what it is to be a human BEING. By pooling all this information, we get to see
the bigger picture.

Every single one of us counts - our every view and idea.

We seek to provide a safe environment to express what's really on your mind
and in your heart - a place to experiment with who you ARE.

Come and Dare to Share and show you Care at this unifying event in the
Inspiration hall at 5am.
