| Welcome to Tulsa,
Oklahoma! |
Green
Country Greens and the Green
Party of Oklahoma invite the GPUS Annual National Meeting to
gather this year in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Be bold, we say, and come
South, and a little bit West, to a state that produced Will
Rogers and Woody
Guthrie, Ralph
Ellison and Wilma
Mankiller, a state whose populist, progressive history is
largely unknown but whose people can, with time and hard work,
reclaim that proud tradition.
Though small in number, Oklahoma
Greens are actively promoting our values and positions, building
political networks and standing with the powerless and
disenfranchised. We represent the hearts of Greens everywhere, who
do not let obstacles deter them from a vision of nonviolence, social
justice, ecological wisdom and grassroots democracy.
Oklahoma's
Green Country is the perfect place for GPUS to come in 2005, to
start gearing up for a new election cycle. Oklahoma is conservative,
no doubt about it, but Tulsa is a city undergoing a progressive
revival, thanks to its world-class cultural and educational
institutions and its communal/voluntary organizations like the Oklahoma
Food Coop and the Oklahoma
Independent Media Center.
Green Country Greens and the Green Party of
Oklahoma, along with the Rural
Oklahoma Greens, Oklahoma
County Greens and Cleveland
County Greens, will work to make your meeting comfortable and
productive, and your visit to our state fun and interesting.
Breathe in the Green in Green Country OK
this July!
