Draft Agenda for Thursday, January 24, 2013 Green Party of Santa Clara County 
GA meeting to be held at San Jose Peace Center 48 S 7th St, San Jose, CA. 
Final Agenda will be published at 9AM Thursday.



7:00PM -7:30PM Arrive, socialize. Guest speaker Brian Good on: 


A. developing new technologies. 


1. Many years I have been unhappy that there has been no high-tech reinvention of a Commodore 64, Texas Instruments 99, Radio Shack TRS-80, or Atari 800 that could plug into our TVs. 


2. For many years I have wanted a belt-pack flash-drive video recorder so I can plug my flaky old mini-DV video cameras into a tapeless recorder. 


3. Smart phone tech is bringing us a computing reinvention without Windows, without Apple, without Intel or AMD. It runs Linux, it's thumb-drive or credit card sized, it's cheap, and it's here. Google A10, A31, Raspberry Pi. 


B. third-generation California Disclose Act, SB52. Democrats hold 2/3 majorities in both Assembly and Senate so this year is likely to be the year we win. So join us! 




7:30 Meeting begins. Identify facilitator, note taker, time keeper,vibes watcher and agenda preparer for next meeting. 




7:35 Introductions and announcements. Changes to agenda.

9:00 Obtaining other people for the County Council and to represent Santa Clara County on the statewide Standing General Assembly. 


Santa Clara County is allowed 5 representatives on the statewide Standing General Assembly. We currently have only 3. John Thielking is currently not on that list; we should put him on. That 
would bring us to 4, consisting entirely of our current County Council. 


Drew noted that our County Council is currently all male. Number 7 of the 10 key values of the Green Party is "Feminism and Gender Equity" (www.gp.org/tenkey.php). We could use some females. 


9:05 PROPOSED: The Green Party of Santa Clara County will endorse the presentation of the movie "Enemy Alien" at the Peace Center, Saturday evening, March 23. Spencer 


DISCUSSION: "Enemy Alien" is a documentary describing the persecution of a Palestinian-American, Farouk Abdel-Muhti, essentially for being Palestinian and refusing to remain silent. The film was produced by a Japanese American, Konrad Aderer, whose parents had spent World War II in a concentration camp in the US (www.lifeorliberty.org/enemy-alien). The South Bay Committee Against Political Repression is organizing a presentation of this movie to be followed by a panel discussion 
featuring a Japanese-American and an Arab-American. 


9:10 Proposal to invite Peace and Freedom people to participate in our meetings and events. Caroline 


9:15 There is also a Latino activity going on on Friday that I will send you details of so it can go on the agenda as well. Caroline
