THIS IS HOW WE DO IT a A Rebellious Show & Tell

A series of dialogues featuring people from around the world who are living the future now

 

The question no longer is if but how

 

There are people and communities all across

the world who are no longer waiting for the

systems around them to change, who are

engaged in alternative practices right now --

in the workplace, in education, in healthcare,

in public safety initatives, in new economic

systems and more. This year Foundry Dialogues will feature the practices and experiences -- the how -- of some of these remarkable innovators.

"Sing me of rights, sing me of justice,

  Don't give me front page news

  Sing me a song of social significance."

 

In 1937 P&N was a hit musical written for and performed by the members of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union – this amateur company ran on Broadway for 4 years and sent three different touring companies across the US.  We adapted this historic musical to be performed by the members of FUREE – Families United For Racial and Economic Equality.   FUREE in Pins and Needles is a community musical performed by a community that knows too well what they were singing about in 1937 and what they are singing about in 2011.
