APA Critical Events

From Dennis Fox:

An update on the three events I emailed about a couple of weeks ago -
restaurant location, revised protest schedule, discussion reminder. If
you think you might make it to the dinner, please let me know. Close
to last minute is also probably okay.

1. CRITICAL/RADICAL PSYCHOLOGY DINNER

Thursday, August 14, 7 PM
BANGKOK CITY RESTAURANT
167 Massachusetts Avenue, Boston
<http://www.bkkcityboston.com>

RadPsyNet had dinner here at APA 1999. Good food, lots of options,
relaxing place to hang out for a while. Not quite as centrally located
now that APA has moved to the new convention center in South Boston,
but it’s close to most of the APA hotels in the Back Bay/Copley Square
area.

Massachusetts Avenue is west of Copley Square (away from downtown) and
the older Hynes Convention Center. It’s an easy walk from Copley. The
closest subway station is called Hynes Convention Center (on the B, C,
or D Green Lines), one stop away from the Copley station (exit the
station and turn left, it’s a block and a half or so on the right-hand
side). The closest APA-connected hotel is the Sheraton Boston. The
restaurant website has a map. Let me know if you have any questions.

2. PROTEST FOR AN ETHICAL APA (revised time)

Saturday, August 16, 12-2 PM in the park at the front entrance of the
Convention Center.

The Ethical APA website has more details:

3. CRITICAL PSYCHOLOGY ISSUES CONVERSATION HOUR

Sunday, August 17, 11:00-11:50 AM, Boston Convention Center, Meeting
Room 103.

Thomas Teo and Dennis Fox will start off a general discussion (not
read papers) about philosophical, political, stylistic, pragmatic, and
other issues facing and sometimes dividing critical psychologists.
Please help us all figure out where critical psychology is at,
including how critical psychology and radical psychology (are they the
same thing?) connect with social justice

Hope to see you next week!
