<img src="http://rochester.indymedia.org/usermedia/image/2/2j61823s.jpg" alt="SDS" border="1" align="left" style="padding:2px;" /> The New Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) began meeting in Rochester only about 3 months ago. In this short amount of time, several regional high school and college campuses have started chapters or have begun the process of becoming formal chapters, and a number of successful demonstrations/ events have been organized by Rochester area SDS chapters. <p /> The original SDS (established 1960) was the largest student movement in history, and became an iconic force in New Left politics. As of this posting there are 113 active chapters with over 3000 members in the new SDS. <p /> <a href="http://blip.tv/file/1661423">This week on Indy TV</a>, Maggie Spallina of Rochester SDS and Ryan Acuff of University of Rochester (U of R) SDS, join us to elaborate on what SDS is, it's use of participatory democratic decision making, and some of the many projects these groups are currently engaged in. <p> Rochester SDS meets every Wednesday night (7pm) at the antiwar storefront at 658 Monroe Ave. <br /> The U of R SDS meets every Thursday (9pm) at the Ruth Merrill Center, Wilson Commons, U of R Campus. <br /> More info at:<br /> <a href="href">www.studentsforademocraticsociety.org</a><img class="dada-image-center" src="http://rochester.indymedia.org/sites/default/files/migrate_dada/opening.jpg"><br> <img class="dada-image-center" src="http://rochester.indymedia.org/sites/default/files/migrate_dada/ei_clique.jpg"><br>
