Each week there is a different opening band at 11 PM\, followed by dancing 'til 2 in the morning. The groups are usually some sort of kitschy rock\, and the Sixxteen regulars show up early to catch them. There isn't a stage in the Cat's Alley (since their fantastic renovation half a year ago\,) so the bands perform at the back end of one room and everyone gathers around. People not interested in the show can lounge in the other room on their many comfy couches and barstools.

This July\, that message will reverberate through California\, when the Afrofunk Festival returns after three consecutive years of sold-out shows. The Afrofunk Festival was born in 2005\, when Kenyan singer Victor Sila joined forces with Liberian DJ Jeremiah Kpoh. Cresting the wave of the international Afrobeat revival\, which shined a media spotlight on bands like Antibalas and artists like Femi Kuti\, the AFF tapped into the vibrancy of the San Francisco Bay Area\, the epicenter of the '80s World Beat craze and current home to bands like Albino\, Kotoja\, Aphrodesia\, and Sila's own outfit\, the Afro-Funk Experience. The result was a truly unique event with a righteous\, humanitarian cause benefiting at-risk youth in famine- and war-torn regions of East Africa. In the years since\, Afrobeat has continued to grow in popularity\, while the AFF has become a cultural institution -- not just in the San Francisco Bay Area\, but along the West Coast. Now in its fourth year\, the AFF (which runs July 9-26) has expanded to venues in Eugene\, Seattle\, Portland\, Ashland\, San Luis Obispo\, San Diego\, Los Angeles\, and Santa Barbara. The AFF tour concludes with three consecutive nights at San Francisco's premier live music club\, The Independent. "There's no way we can stop doing the Afrofunk Festival\, as long as the crisis facing children in Africa continues\," says Sila\, emphasizing that his mission has always been to raise cultural and social awareness through music. This year's lineup stretches the boundaries of Afrofunk\, presenting African\, Afro-Brazilian and Afro-Latin variants\, alongside nu-funk and classic soul. Performers include Sila and the Afrofunk Experience\, Sambada\, B-Side Players\, Rocky Dawuni\, Darondo\, Nino Moschella\, Afrobeat Down\, Bayonics\, Fuga\, Manicato\, DJ Jeremiah and the Afrobeat Nation\, DJ Vanka\, and DJ Felina. (Visit http://www.afrofunk.org for a complete list of performers\, dates\, and venues.) The Afrofunk Festival is still a party\, so bring your dancing shoes\, but this is a party with a conscience\; proceeds will benefit House of Hope\, an orphanage in Uganda that houses children ravaged by famine and disease. Despite international media attention and critically-acclaimed documentaries like Peter Jordan's Darfur Rising which have increased awareness about the plight of African children\, the situation remains grave. Having spent time in a refugee camp as a youth himself before coming to America\, DJ Jeremiah is particularly sympathetic to the struggles of Africa's children. "This is the best way I know of to focus attention on this important issue. The youth are the future. By helping them\, we are giving them the hope for a better life\," he says\, adding\, "what better medium to get this message across than Afrofunk?"

This period was marked by a set of injustices and riots that threatened to destroy the city\, yet it was also a time during which several powerful community-based coalitions were formed. Bringing together members of these historic grass roots organizations who recount their personal experiences\, this public forum will provide a platform for discussing some of Richmond’s largely undocumented history with a younger generation of political activists. This event is the first in a series of discussions that aim to explore the legacy of Bay Area community-based activism in the context of the modern civil rights movement\, as well as examine possibilities for localized political change.

In recent years\, intelligence contracting has grown into a multi-billion dollar industry\, with privatization often blurring the lines between public and private sectors. Examples of private contractors can be found in places like Abu Ghraib\, and in American intelligence centers throughout the world. Similarly\, former high-ranking national security officials can be found in various consulting roles throughout the private sector intelligence industry. Yet\, the size\, scope\, and influence of this intelligence outsourcing has been largely unexamined\, and sometimes at odds with congressional oversight and public accountability. Join the Council for a conversation with investigative journalist Tim Shorrock as he discusses this topic in depth in his new book\, Spies for Hire.

Could "green-collar" jobs clean the "dirty-energy economy" and lift people out of poverty? In the past\, job creation and protecting the environment have been\, some say\, mutually exclusive. But in 2007\, the Green Jobs Act and the founding of Green for All\, an organization that focuses on green job training\, marked the beginning of a movement to redefine economic growth. Is it possible to reconcile these historic opposites? Senator Steinberg and Green for All founder Jones talk about green economic development and its potential.
