The response is already posted on YouTube at https://youtube/watch?v=beW2ZhNJvAA Appearing in the video are * Fred Vitale of Detroit, GPMIs state chair and a candidate for Wayne County Commission last year; * Sherry A. Wells of Ferndale, who was nominated by GPMI last June for a seat on the State Board of Education and is already running again for 2016; and * Chris Wahmhoff of Kalamazoo, GPMIs US Senate candidate last year but better known for his protest of Enbridges 2010 Kalamazoo River pipeline spill. Eric Borregard of Dexter, producer of the video and a Green endorsed by the party in his campaign for a non-partisan seat on the Washtenaw Community College board, has also posted two previews. The first is almost three minutes long, and traces the chain of events from the Enbridge spill here in Michigan to the Peoples Climate March this fall. https://youtube/watch?v=fLGfmR0sfqM The second preview, a bit over five minutes long, is a broader introduction to the response and to the Green Party of Michigan. The panelists touch on such issues as local control of education, the national security that comes from protecting our states crucial fresh-water resources, opposing and ending repressive force and police violence, and making democracy work for the people. They discuss how all these issues are related to each other -- and to the Green Partys founding values, its Four Pillars: Grassroots Democracy, Social Justice, Environmental Wisdom, and Non-Violence. https://youtube/watch?v=b3DF3bv5ZDg For more information about the Green Party of Michigan and its values, visit: MIGreenParty.org/ You can also “like” the Green Party of Michigan US Facebook page and follow GPMIs Twitter feed @MIGreenParty. # # # created/distributed using donated labor Green Party of Michigan * PO Box 504; Warren, MI 48090-0504 * 313-815-2025 * MIGreenParty.org
