HI,  The Salon for October 30, Tuesday, is about the trial of Roger Cuthbertson 
and Molly Wetherall who were acquitted because of their First Amendment Rights 
being confirmed in the verdict for their protesting the killing of Philando 
Castile by police in July 2016.   The trial and acquittal was June, 2018.   
Roger will be at the salon to tell us all about the trial and his thoughts 
about the justice system.


Hi. This next Tuesday, October 30, Roger Cuthbertson will be our guest to tell 
us about his and Molly Wetherall’s trial this summer .   They were acquitted 
because of their First Amendment Rights being confirmed in the verdict.  They 
had been arrested in 2016 for protesting the killing of Philando Castile by 
police.   Come and celebrate their victory.

There will be no salon on Nov. 6 because of Election Day.   And, no salon on 
Nov. 13.   

But, on November 20 and November 27:


On Indigenous People’s Day this year Annette Klapstein, 66, a retired attorney 
and Emily Johnston, 52, poet and office worker, walked into a northern 
Minnesota courtroom to plead a “necessity defense” for shutting down Canadian 
tar sands oil piped across our state.    
 
Two Twin Cities climate activists, Susu Jeffrey and Jean Ross, attended the 
trial and will report back to the community at the Pax-Conversational Salon on 
Tuesday, Nov. 20.  This was the first moral (“Necessity Defense”)  heard in  a 
U.S. court of law on climate civil disobedience .  


Nov. 27, we will discuss the Little Book of the Month Club book  “The Warmth of 
Other Suns” by Isabel Wilkerson.   It is the epic story of America’s Great 
Migration of Blacks from the south to the north.   It is a book everyone should 
read.   So good.   Narrative non-fiction.
