[From Mark Carter] "Theatre-Dead Certain at the Next Stage"

"A number of Harvard grads have asked me to post
something to the [harvard-sf] blog when I see good
shows. Here's a pretty good and inexpensive show:

Dead Certain presented by Expression Theatre Ensemble
at the Next Stage Theatre at 1620 Gough Street in San
Francisco, Thursday-Sunday through September 11.

The grads can visit http://expressiontheatre.net for
more info."

I was there. He went on to get his doctorate in
theoretical physics from Stanford

as many of you know and does technical patent work and
analysis. Perry]

Not Nice Action By Animal Rights Org. PETA

David Evans, FAS at Harvard, made me aware this
morning that PETA has a promotion going that equates
injustice to Blacks in the U.S. to animal
mistreatment.

Here is the program (apologies it is disturbing):
http://www.peta.org/AnimalLiberation/display.asp

Here is an article about it:
http://slate.msn.com/id/2124601/nav/tap1/

Everyone can draw their own conclusions; as a person
trying to work with disadvantaged youth in Oakland,
many of them Black Americans, I will say that now does
not seem to be the time for PETA to leverage the Black
experience in America to change animal treatment
practices. The imagery is powerful but not
appropriate and fair. I am for animal rights. I do
not think this exhibit is nice. If anyone has
contacts at PETA please let me know. Regards.

EARN Non-Profit With Deep Harvard Roots

"EARN, a local non profit organization with
deep Harvard roots, has been named one of ten
finalists in the prestigious Amazon.com Non
Profit Innovation Award.

EARN helps to build assets for the working
poor (average family income is $17,700) by
providing financial management training,
matched savings accounts, and free bank accounts.
EARN's activities focus mainly on Individual
Development Accounts (IDAs), which matches
the savings of working poor families on a 2:1
basis in a custodial account. Recipients can
only use the money for college education, small
business, or home ownership. EARN's impact is
tremendous, nearly 800 families are saving an
average of $75 per month. Over $1.5 million has
been saved, and over $175,000 has already been
invested in homes, educations and small
businesses. EARN's success is creating a model
for fighting poverty on a national and global
scale. EARN may be a small nonprofit but their
strategy for fighting poverty is getting some
big attention. EARN's work has recently been
featured on NPR and in BusinessWeek, and they
were named a Fast Company Social Capitalist of
the Year for 2005.

Where You Can Help: In the next six weeks,
Amazon.com will enable the public to make
contributions to the ten finalist organizations,
with the organization collecting the most
donations winning a matching grant up to $1
million. Each dollar EARN raises through
individuals is also matched by government funds,
so if EARN wins, it could mean up to $4 million
dollars for 1,000 working-poor families to invest
in life-changing assets like first homes, higher
education and small businesses.

Help a Local Cause Created and Guided by Harvard
Alums: Vote for EARN by donating online through

Please give as much as you are able and pass this
message along to friends and family ASAP. If you
