This coming May Day, Luis Magaña and his organizing committee are leading a march downtown, pushing back against the anti-immigrant stances/rhetoric that is so prevalent today.
We have not yet formally endorsed any May Day activities, and his feels like a good opportunity to demonstrate solidarity with the farm workers and immigrants. It is a chance to lend our support and also a chance to speak with organizers and folks we otherwise are not in dialogue with.
Therefore, I propose the following:
- Endorse this May Day action: We will share their action across our social media and more importantly, attend the event!
- Logistics: Since this event is the same day as our General Meeting, I propose we delay our GM until 7PM on the same day.
Since this is pushing our meeting late, if there are enough people who play to attend May Day and stay for the meeting in person, we should order dinner.
To move forward with endorsing and rescheduling, we need 5 YES votes (quorum is 4), with a maximum of 2 YES votes coming from members of @WCU_Steering.
