THE
CHANGE WE KNEAD NOW!
BAKE GOODS
NOT BANK BAILOUTS TOUR

"it will be a great day when our schools get the money they need & the air force
has to hold a bake sale to buy a bomber."

SEVEN STEPS TO STARTING A FOOD NOT BOMBS GROUP

Arrange a presentation with Food Not Bombs co-founder Keith McHenry
Talk with your student senate as soon as you return to school this fall.

Author, artisist and Food Not Bombs co-founder Keith McHenry will demonstrate how to prepare solar baked goods while giving a presentation about the history, principles and and Food Not Bombs global campaign for the change we knead now! Volunteers recover, prepare and share vegan meals and groceries in nearly 1,000 communities, feeding the hungry, supporting nonviolent direct actions in resistance to the global economic, political and environmental crisis while implementing a foundation for a sustainable future. Tax payers have spent trillions to bail out the banks and fund wars for corporate domination, now it's time to bail out our communities.

Food Not Bombs started in 1980 when eight college aged activists dressed as generals and started holding bake sales pretending to buy a bomber. Thirty years later Food Not Bombs organized a two month long vigil outside the White House baking bread in a solar oven to build popular support for a conversion from a carbon based war economy to a sustainable solar future. Now you can join this life changing movement!

Radio Listener-The Meria Heller Show

"The Diggers' philosophy influenced the thinking of a young man named Keith McHenry, who would go on to become one of the most important figures in the freegan movement. McHenry, who is now 53, came from a family with a prestigious pedigree; his ancestor, James McHenry, was one of the signers of the Constitution.

The presentation describes how the all volunteer global movement Food Not Bombs was started by eight college age youth in 1980. Thirty years later Food Not Bombs is responding to the global economic crisis by sharing vegetarian meals in over 1,000 communities, planting Food Not Lawns community gardens, housing the homeless in abandoned building with Homes Not Jails, organizing Really Really Free Markets and taking nonviolent direct action. The Change We Knead Now!-Bake Goods Not Bank Bailouts Tour includes a presentation about the history, principles and the current actions of Food Not Bombs taking place around the world. Learn why Food Not Bombs has no formal leaders and is able to be so effective because of its decentralized autonomous structure. The presentation also explores the principles of nonviolence, how decisions are made by consensus, that why the meals are always vegetarian and vegan and free to anyone who wants them without restriction. The presentation ends with a 15 minute video about Food Not Bombs in Africa. We also offer presentations on the roll of Amnesty International in defending Food Not Bombs, history and current actions to defend the environment, work for peace and social justice, the liberation of animals, workshops on nonviolence, a presentation about domestic spying in the U.S., and our work to end hunger and poverty. Your classmates and community members will be inspired to join your student group after they attend this exciting presentation. Ask your student senate to fund this valuable experience. Colleges have provided Food Not Bombs with honorariums from $500 to $3,000. The presentations are always free to Food Not Bombs groups. Talk with the other student organizations on your campus and ask them to help host one of these valuable presentations.
