While the ruling elite met in Davos, Switzerland to map out the next phase of global conquest, the first World Social forum drew activists, solidarity coalitions, NGO’s, and a smattering of international press to Porto Alegre, Brazil. The issue: moving from reactive activism, to action. Naomi Klein is the author of ‘No Logo’, the book Canada’s Secret Service reviewed as “the protester’s Bible.” She also writes for the Toronto Globe and Mail, attended the forum, and will be appearing later this week at UVic for an evening billed, ‘From Protest to Power- Seattle, Community Organizing, and Local Democracy’.
