P.S. Here's an excerpt from an article in Publishers Weekly (3/22/04)
about some of the events:
On April 15, Fact & Fiction in Missoula, Mont., is sponsoring
"MoveOn Day," focusing on the Constitution and citizens' voting
rights. Co-sponsoring groups include Montana PRIDE, the League of
Women Voters, the University of Montana's Law School and the Montana
ACLU.
Left Bank Books in St. Louis is piggybacking its April 22 event
onto radio journalist and Democracy Now host Amy Goodman's book tour
promoting The Exception to the Ruler. The event also will be a
fundraiser for a local grassroots community radio station, KDHX. It
has been moved offsite to the 800-seat Sheldon Concert Hall to
accommodate the expected crowd. The evening will begin with a
reception, followed by presentations by a local MoveOn.org volunteer
and by Goodman. The evening will include a short film and a
book-signing by Goodman.
"This is the type of organic community-based event I like to do
best," said Left Bank Books co-owner Kris Kleindienst, who is also a
member of MoveOn.org. "We'll be selling books, yes, but we're also
calling attention to MoveOn. I think what MoveOn is doing is so
important. I like that they understand that independent bookstores fit
their democratic model. I'm thrilled to be part of this. This is what
we're here for; this is what we should be doing as independent
bookstores in a democracy."
