UC Berkeley - Free Speech Week
"The Empathy Tent will be there to offer listening, facilitated dialog, empathy and mediation.
"Berkeley free speech week will be a peaceful event with speakers and surprises at different locations on campus throughout each day. Berkeley free speech week is open to all political ideologies, with speakers representing conservatives, libertarians, and even liberals."
Joey Gibson of Patriot Prayer,
a group that has attracted alt-right fans, had also promised to be in town for “Free Speech Week,” as did anti-fascist demonstrators.
Wednesday 20
Dave and Edwin set up the Empathy Tent today. The student led 'decal' class on empathy came by and we introduced them to empathic listening and how to take part in an empathy circle.
Looks like Milo's Free Speech site posted it to their page. It's had several thousand views. http://j.mp/2wIqsCw

UC officials call it ‘most expensive photo opp’ in university’s history

"The March for Free Speech through UC Berkeley with with Milo Yiannopoulos, Pamela Geller, Michael Cernovich, and more speakers will take place this Sunday at 12pm. We are dissapointed the University forced a cancellation of FSW through bureaucratic measures and threats. We, the Berkeley Patriot, are not intimidated. We will continue to fight for what we believe in. We will not give up. If you would like to hear Milo and take a stand for Free Speech, "now is the time.

Empathy 'decal' class
Just would like to announce that the Empathy 'decal' class is going to be at the tent next Wednesday 5-7pm on Sproul.
Because of some apprehension about what will actually be happening on Sproul that day, we are not obliging the students to go. Rather, they can choose to do an off-campus activity with Marco (a facilitator) or go to the Empathy Tent on Sproul with me (Alissa, the other facilitator).
Would love to see you there! I am also sharing it on my Facebook and trying to get more people I know involved. Alissa
