Thank you Brooke!  I'm going to forward this information to our AUSCP coordinators Bev Bingle & Tom McDonald so as to see if there might already be preexisting connections to prevent us reinventing the wheel.  I feel comfortable providing outreach after they check in with all of us on what is being considered.  

 

Thank you for the quick response!

 

Much Love,

Jimmy,

 

Below are faculty I thought of/found.

 

Melissa would probably know better about the community as a whole as my focus is usually UT. I absolutely can be active in the events as well. I have that Friday blocked off in my calendar so I am free the whole day besides my class which is from 2-3PM. And Saturday I’ll have limited availability as I will have to work recycling at our home football game.

Thanks, Brooke!

 

If you are able to get me any contact information for organizations or key local activists/advocates that you think it prudent for me to pursue for some form of EJ/Water Rights panel, that would be great.  Similarly, I did want to see if there are any individuals (yourself absolutely included) who would want to be active in the discussion and events in a collaborative way.  Benjamin is not a seasoned organizer yet, so I am working in areas where he may be struggling per his requests this past weekend.  

 

Once I receive a word back from the AUSCP committee, I'll have a better idea of what type of program will be crafted in this short period of time :)

 

Many, many thanks for your counsel on this so far,

Hi Jimmy,

 

I haven't made much movement on our end. Trying to find the right people to talk to has been difficult.

I haven't heard from others, but would love to talk with then about ideas of other events. Melissa Said she would forward me what she had when I had a meeting with her on a separate topic last week but has not yet. She said to her knowledge a pastor was planning your stay?

Hello Brooke,

I am just checking in on any developments -- I have found a location for some prospective events and wanted to see if you would want to engage with the organizers there -- I know Benjamin was planning on connecting you and making a determination on campsites after more discussion, so wanted to see if there was any information gathered from Melissa Green to your knowledge as well.  
The AUSCP organization is handling quite a bit of our logistics/meals/etc, but there is plenty of content/contributors to seek out for environmental justice panels and specific actions & demonstrations in Toledo.  

 

I hope you are having a great weekend -- we are in Elkhart, Indiana :)

 

Much Love,
