11/11/19 Minutes: Winter calendar finalized, Thankstaking, History/Theory Group?

In attendance: Ty (moderator), Brandon (secretary), Will, Bailey, Wyatt, Jackson, Paul

1. Event Review
We had a reading discussion for Inhabit, a small book/pamphlet about autonomy. It was decently attended and people seemed to enjoy it.

2. Upcoming Event
Movie night: Skins! We need to find a DVD. We panicked at the meeting, but then found out that it is available at Love Library.

There is also an Intro to Computer Programming course happening with the free school at the Bennett Martin Public Library on Wednesday from 6 to 8 on the 4th floor

3. Assembly

November 23rd from 10am to 2pm at Bennett Martin Library. We are looking for form unity and build under three broad themes: – Resource Distribution, Climate Change, Community Resilience

4. History/Theory group
There is interest among some of the people in the room in starting a reading discussion group for history and theory. We began talking about what it could look like.

5. Thankstaking
We planned out the food that we will be making. We do not want to serve traditional thanksgiving food, because that keeps up with the tradition of the terrible holiday. Ty wants to make vegan curry.
