Food is a right, not a privilege. Food Not Bombs is a community program that uses donations of food to from local grocery stores to prepare a free community meal. The food otherwise would have been thrown out by the stores, illustrating the problems of relying on a purely market-based model to distribute resources within our communities. We cook & serve every Monday at the Interactive Resource Center ( 407 East Washington... St., Downtown) from 3:30pm to 6:30pm. From November to March we serve …

Let's get together and have some fun shooting, and see if there is interest in a greater cause - saving the sinking ship we are all on!

Come to one of our meetings, and see! (The shooting part is optional, and may be better for a later meetup, after the first one.) I hope we will find some kindred spirits united in the beli …

This book club began in 2007 in response to a gap in book clubs in the West side of the Triangle. Since then, many book clubs have emerged (on meetup, and elsewhere).

Our four organizers all love this book club, and participate often. We're always looking for new members and fresh ideas in discussion. What can you exp …
