Tomorrow's Call Agenda:
- FEATURED PRESENTATION: Angelina is a recent graduate from University of San Francisco with a major in Politics and minor in Public Service and Community Engagement, and is unBox's Policy Team Lead. She has spent her time studying the ways the personal can and has become political while also engaging in direct action across California. While the future is uncertain, Angelina is determined to keep pursuing her passion for politics and most importantly doing so with a community. Angelina, on her share-out:
"The presentation is going to be a brief, but hopefully useful crash course on LGBTQ+ history and intersections. From discussing the beginning stages of what we now know as Pride to addressing the current disparities between LGBTQ+ and non-LGBTQ+ people, I hope this serves as a useful presentation for understanding the current state of LGBTQ+ inclusion. While Supreme Court victories and increasing social support may illustrate progress, there is still much to be done to truly support and uplift the LGBTQ+ community"
- Policy Spotlight on CA AB 558 + actions!
- Advisor updates
- SAVE THE DATE FOR OUR NEXT CALL JULY 16: Join for agroecology and food system activist and unBox Advisor Conrad Schmidt's presentation about his ongoing Stanford University Teaching Gardens workshop series in which he uses growing food as a nexus for exploring topics such as urban sustainable gardening and farming, the cultural importance of food historically, the evolution of modern agricultural principles and practices and what the future of agriculture might look like, and how to best address food insecurity and seek food justice at the community level.
