Recently got this message, about an intriguing program from KPBS, affiliated with By The People: a national conversation about America and the world…
KPBS’ By the People project, in partnership with San Diego Public Library, will be hosting four community dialogue events over the next few weeks. Here is a list of topics we’ll be covering with locations. We’ll be asking attendees to discuss where they feel San Diego fits into the world in regards to these topics. We’ll also be talkig about how US and foreign policy affects our community. Please contact me for more info or contact the library directly. Thanks!

This is good to know about. I’m gonna make a sincere effort to attend all four of those events. Also, I heard a fascinating interview on The Lounge last night with the inventor of Hyperscore a free, downloadable music composer which allows people from around the world (including impoverished children) to compose pieces that have then been played by renowned symphonies. You can download the program from the La Jolla Music Society’s webpage.
