Activism

Lol me carry on

Itā€™s just now starting to make its way around. Just in case any of my fellow Oklahomans want to go to the welcome home gathering, it is now at 6:15 tomorrow night at Norman High School. Norman mayor Breea Clark is coordinating everything now. The team is expected back from the title game between 6:30 and 7:00.

@microbet we still on for tomorrow?

That rolled around fast. Dunno. Iā€™m up for it, but we probably only should if @LFS and @jmakin get the chance here. Did you get any of your friends?

My kid is at their girlfriendā€™s and I have to go pick them up midday, so I am not in for tomorrow.

I made sunday plans and saturdayā€™s the only day I have time available where I can spend with the kid I am mentoring. Sorry.

Ok no problem. Maybe we can find a day in the future

Yeah, letā€™s try to reconvene on Wednesday or Thursday.

It is Thursday. We might consider switching topics to the homeless encampments. We wonā€™t be lonesome at Echo Park.

Itā€™ll already have been completely cleared out I think.

Probably. I got a DSA email about a protest there this morning. Probably too late this weekend.

Iā€™m feeling like altering my protest/activism plans even more. Iā€™ll have my second shot on April 15th. Maybe after we are both vaccinated we can organize more of a UP effort for Food Not Bombs? Maybe we can even try to get some food thatā€™s not just salad or salad turned into soup?

Is anyone even saying remotely anything like this?

Iā€™m in. As everybody here knows, the homeless situation in Los Angeles has totally exploded. Iā€™d love to be taking some direct collective action to help our fellow humans.

182 people arrested last night. There will probably be something still going on there tomorrow.

In too.

In for some mutual aid after vaccination or going to get arrested at Echo Park?

(jk - Iā€™m not getting arrested - even if I go to Echo Park)

Whatever you guys are willing to do Iā€™m in

Tonight would be a better time for me to go to Echo Park than tomorrow and there will probably be more action at night. My only reservation is the covidness of it.

I cannot do tonight. Could do tomorrow mid-day, I think.
