We reviewed Hands Off events in Fairbanks, Juneau, Dilllingham, Petersburg

• Dillingham had a good cross-section including elders who spoke to the group. Janelle is looking for additional ideas for continuing to organize there. We talked about holding a follow up debrief event, identifying future organizing activities by checking in with how people are feeling and starting conversation that way, and we reviewed the townhall event idea and how it went in Fairbanks and Juneau 
• Ryan cooked food and gave it away at the Fairbanks event, raising $500 to give to breadline, yay!
• Will future protests get more specific? Is it time to make more localized demands with our protest? The excitement is national, but maybe demands have to be more local
• We talked about books for learning more about organizing:
  1. Starting Somewhere: Community Organizing For Socially Awkward People Who’ve Had Enough” by Roderick Douglass
  2. Let this radicalize you: Organizing and the revolution for reciprocal care by Kelly Hayes and Miriam Kaba
  3. Solidarity: The Past, Present, and Future of a World-Changing Idea Hardcover – by Leah Hunt-Hendrix and Astra Taylor 
• We talked about the importance of establishing group norms and formalizing some aspects of roles so that we can intentionally bring people into a culture of care and respect and build out from there
• Homework: review Malena’s attempt to synthesize our new party project!
