In attendance: Jackson (secretary), Ty (moderator)
Start time: 7:00 PM

1. Bike Rack – Jackson has found a decent-looking bike rack for $44.95. Ty also likes it, so we agree to buy it for the house. Jackson will be reimbursed for making this purchase.

2. Misogyny in Nerd Culture – Emilio of Social Justice Education Network is returning to Lincoln tomorrow night to give another of his talks. We’re going to promote it on our Facebook, and donate $20 from our treaury to help cover his travel expenses.

3. Website Comments – Our site’s comments are literally 100% spam, and it’s a drag having to delete everything that gets commented on our site. We decided to disable the comments.

4. Adding June Events to Facebook and Website – We spent the rest of our meeting time adding our June events to our website and Facebook pages.

Meeting adjourned: 7:30 PM

Tabled: Stuff to buy (longarm stapler, paper cutter, canopy)

In attendance: Jackson (moderator), Ty (secretary)

Start time: 7:05 PM

1.  Event Review: We hosted a fundraiser for Porchfest, which was a big success! Folks seemed to enjoy the space, and the concert was a great time and pulled some money in.
2. Reimbursement: Ty got calendars last week. The printing cost was $6.44, and he was approved for reimbursement.
3.  Email: We got an email for someone booking a show. It’s not an acoustic band, or an explicitly political one, so the answer’s going to be no.

1. Event Review – We had our yard sale over the weekend, and we raised $597.30! We decided to put it all into our general treasury for now. We discussed the idea of buying a bike rack, a longarm stapler, a paper cutter, and a new canopy. We need to do some research on these items, and what we’ll expect to pay for them.

2. Upcoming Event – The Porchfest Fundraiser concert is this Friday! Our only homework for the event is to clean up the post-yard sale mess in the living room.

3. Summer Calendar – Ty has the files finished, and will get them printed and picked up on Wednesday. He is pre-approved for reimbursement for that expense.

1. Event Review: Chi-Raq has a small turnout but a spirited, lengthy discussion afterwards. Might have to be a movie we show again.

2. Upcoming Event: The yard sale will be this Friday and Saturday, and the living room is half-full of items to potentially sell. We still have to move several boxes of items from the basement, as well as price and sort items. Ty’s grandpa is bringing over tables. Jackson might have another contact for tables as well. We also need some street signs prepared to get up the day before.

3. Summer Calendar: This is the final version. Ty will finish creating PDFs of the calendar and handbills, and send it to Jackson to get printed.

1. Event Review: Jackson hosted Children of Men on Saturday. Turnout and discussion was good. We also had a May Day discussion, which was a fantastic event with good turnout. Radicals talking about labor on May Day is always a good thing. We were a little less prepared for it than we would’ve liked, couldn’t really stay focused on the Fight For $15 campaign, but a good discussion on labor rights in general came out of it regardless.

2. Upcoming Event: We have Chi-Raq coming up on Saturday! There’s not much prep that needs to be done.

3. Yard Sale: We can start sorting things for the sale on Sunday, until then we need to gather interest and see if we can collect some donation items. Another plug for donations should go up this week.

4. Fundraiser: The Social Justice Education Network is doing some crowdfunding for the organizer to be able to focus on doing their talks professionally. We can share the call for donations on our Facebook, as well as donating $20 ourselves.
