wor k ions all day on the
19th, and a Salute to the Elders
and Sharing of' th Touch Cere­
mony on the 20th. Queen
Moth r Moore, Dr. John Henrik
Clark and Dr. Josef Ben Joc.ha­
nan will be the Honored Elders.
Though every aspect of the
SORC is important, the work
sessions on the 19th are in­
tended to be the heart of the
conference. It is in the work ses-
sions that participants will have
th opportunity to examin vari­
ous mod Is and discuss how to
improve the work that they are
doing at th local level.
The African Centered Educa­
tion Mov m nt, The Rites of
Passa Movement, The Urban
Peace Mov ment, Environ­
ment 1 Raci m and Environ­
mental Ju tice, Political
Empowerm nt, Community
Economic Development. Relig­
ion and lib ration, and Social
Organization and Development
(including' ues such a the
Blac family, h lth care, and
welfa reform) are among the
work sessions that will be in­
cluded in the SORe.
The SORC is certainly a con­
ference whose time has come. As
of this writing, a coalition of
groups in Washington, D.C. un­
der the leadership of Campaign
for aNew Tomorrow is ,t>lanning
a State of D.C. Conference in
June as a lead into the National
State of th Race Conference.
Similar organizing efforts are
also beginning in Pittsburgh,
New York City, Boston and At­
lanta. Many more cities are ex­
pected to gear up over the next
few months.
