The Dorchester Think Tank: Highlight on Activism: Dorchester Food Coop Initiative
http://dorchesterthinktank.blogspot.com/2011/07/highlight-on-activism-dorchester-food.html
Highlight on Activism: Dorchester Food Coop Initiative. When we heard a group of Dorchesterites were working hard to create a community-owned food store to provide healthy, local, and natural food for Dorchester, we were excited and felt their efforts had to be highlighted. If you are unfamiliar with the food co-op model, think Harvest co-op in Somerville or Jamaica Plain. Top photo courtesy of green Dot! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Dorchester Think Tank: Elizabeth Warren for Senate
http://dorchesterthinktank.blogspot.com/2012/10/elizabeth-warren-for-us-senate.html
Elizabeth Warren for Senate. Elizabeth Warren's opponent has a campaign slogan of "He's for Us," but when you look at the issues, it is clear that "She's for All of Us! From her position on jobs, taxes, education, health care, anti-poverty measures, and Wall Street regulation, we are convinced that she will be the best person to hold Ted Kennedy's old seat and we strongly endorse Elizabeth Warren for U.S. Senate.

http://dorchesterthinktank.blogspot.com/2010/09/mac-dalessandro-for-congress.html
Mac D'Alessandro for Congress. Since this blog is meant to highlight the activism that occurs in Dorchester and the hopes we have for future action, we believe that our success for community improvement is completely linked to the actions of those in politics. As a result, we have decided to make our first endorsement of a person running for political office. And thank you for participating in our democracy! This was sent to us by Sanjib:.

The Dorchester Think Tank: The End
http://dorchesterthinktank.blogspot.com/2015/01/the-end.html
During that same time, there have been many changes in our life, including new jobs and, most importantly, the birth of our two daughters. This has reduced the amount of time we have to write about our passion for Dorchester (you may have noticed there have been no posts since 2013) and express our visions for positive change in the place we call home. So today, we bid farewell to the Dorchester Think Tank in this final post. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). In the city of Boston. Friends of Ronan Park.

10 Art and Music Performance Spaces Needed. It is clear from the numerous artists in our studios, to the plenitude of singers, bands, and hip hop acts that practice in our basements, to the all of our young people attending Boston Arts Academy and the other art and music programs in our schools, that Dorchester has talent!
