Occupy Caravan – very exciting! The caravan leaves Los Angeles June 11th and stops in Las Vegas, Phoenix, and Flagstaff before arriving in Albuquerque June 14th. Our Caravan working group is developing a People’s Pots and Pans Potluck Parade in Tiguex Park (near Old Town) to take place from 5-8 p.m. We’ve already got folks signed up to make posole, tamales, green chile stew, and Indian tacos!
