7/7/14
In attendance: Ashley (secretary), Jackson (moderator), Jamie, Sammi, Tati (moderator), Tessa
Meeting started: 7:00
1. Upcoming Events: the KXL event is this weekend. Ashley did a ton of research on the subject, so we’re probably good as far as running the event goes. Ashley will research handouts and see if we can have anything to give out.
2. Reimbursement: Ryan Harvey was able to stop by on the 4th on his way home to Baltimore. He has all of his AK press books with him, along with his CD’s. He donated over a dozen CD’s, and Jackson bought a book called “We Are Many”. We agree to reimburse him $20 for the book. We also need cases for the CD’s, because most of them are in paper cases. Jackson will look into this.
3. Radio Interview: Ashley got interviewed for Earth to Lincoln this afternoon, about the Black Cat House and the KXL event. It’ll probably premiere tomorrow at 6:30.
4. Calendar:
Sammi had some suggestions for sexyfest. They recommended that instead of doing “posi” in the titled, add a plus sign (sex+, love+). We really like love+, it seems more all-ages and would be easy branding.

5. Activism and “Difficult People”: We only made it through one section of the article tonight. We went through the list of difficult people and discussed what they were and how we would handle them depending on the situation. We also talked about ways to handle calling out our friends as being difficult, or being difficult ourselves.http://www.bmartin.cc/pubs/01san.html
