Hi. Friendly reminder today as ICE is terrorizing multiple cities across the country at an accelerating pace—

Many of us are trying to get info out to locals in our areas *fast.* We do not always have time to explain neighborhoods/intersections to people thousands of miles away.

LIBRARY BOARDS
Pursue a seat on your local public library board. Your board may be elected, or it may be appointed. Need help finding details about your local board? For the People: A Leftist Library Project has you covered: data.librariesforthepeople.org

One thing this moment in Chicago has opened up for me is how many people want to be more involved in each other's lives but aren't sure what the first steps are or if their care is wanted or welcomed.

I have a lot of appreciation for the people who are creating more spaces for people to connect.

Oh dang that's a me thing too

I love hearing from those of you who are attending library board meetings, joining your Friends of the Library boards, and running for/seeking appointment to your library boards. Holler at me especially if you also want to write something for FTP's newsletter!
