KFC protest

Saturday, May 21, the Bay Area Vegetarians will host 3 back-to-back fun and important SF events: KFC protest, Shangri-La lunch, Red Vic letter writing party with a presentation by Nora on effective letter writing. You're welcome to come to one, a combination, or all of them.

From 12 noon to 1 pm, we'll protest at KFC, 1900 Irving St (at 18th/19th Ave). Make a statement for the chickens and against KFC's cruelty! Here's the link to this event:

From 1:15 to 2:30 pm, we'll have lunch at Shangri-La (right down the street from the KFC), at 2026 Irving St (at 21st Ave). Shangri-La is a delicious, healthy, and reasonably priced all vegetarian, almost all vegan Chinese restaurant. Here's the link to this event:

From 3 - 5 pm, we'll have the letter writing party at the Red Vic (which is easy to get to on public transportation from Shangri-La, and folks are welcome to head over with me). At the letter writing parties, we write letters to politicians and businesses on a variety of issues related to animals. The link to the letter writing party, which describes it and how to get to the Red Vic, is here:

Also, from 3 - 3:30, Nora will be doing a mini-workshop on letter writing at the Red Vic. Nora's had letters published in leading national newspapers and magazines, and this is a great opportunity for people who want to speak up for animals, but would appreciate some guidance from someone experienced in writing letters. Nora will also stick around and be available to answer questions for the rest of the letter writing party. Here's the link about Nora's presentation:

Please rsvp to me personally at: Thea_Langsam@yahoo.com. I'd especially appreciate rsvp's to Shangri-La, so I can let them know ahead of time if we'll have a large group. Thanks!
