Hi everyone! We have 9 days left before the next time we have to pay rent,
and we're short $750. We estimate that in the next 9 days, roughly $300
will come in through the regular monthly donations that members have set
up, which means we're still short $450.
Noisebridge and Double Union have both recently run Gofundme campaigns; we
could do this too but it would take a concerted marketing effort. Is anyone
interested in looking into this with me? Please email me on or off list!

I can't remember how I ended up involved with MediaJustice and Mijente, but
I got an email about it from their newsletter. I've never been to this
event before, but I have attended a different conference on media and
social justice called Allied Media Conference put on by the Allied Media
PRoject in Detroit; they're not doing it anymore but it was amazing.
Hello, a couple of years ago the sudo room was kind enough to provide me
with a Linux laptop for me to use in my activism on behalf of the Wood
Street Commons. After much productive use the laptop is on its last legs
and also never had a battery and has suffered from the many power outages
we have in our situation. I was wondering if there is another Linux laptop
that I could use to continue my advocacy and legal work on behalf of the
Wood Street Commons.
Thank you very much, Theo Cedar Jones

Hi There - I sent out this message to the "members" email and some one suggested that I send it to "sudo-discuss"
Esther's Orbit Room
1728 7th Street, Oakland CA
Saturday, December 6
10am to 12:30pm!
Usually I would take the bus, but it's 40 minutes each way.
I'm looking for a ride
from Emeryville (around 10am)
to the Temescal
Here's the info about the event
https://ebprec.org/esthers
After 5 years of preparation, we're excited to announce that we're breaking “ground” on Esther’s Orbit Room, a beloved landmark of West Oakland’s Black Arts and Culture Community, and will begin 12 months of construction starting in January.
Attendees will enjoy food and music, self-guided building tours, and can watch us deconstruct and preserve the venue’s original rock facade in celebration of this incredible milestone.
We're not just rehabilitating a building, we're reviving a legacy. See you there!

Just a heads up, tomorrow (Tuesday) a journalism student, Nicolle, is planning to come by to try and get some info on sudo room, to eventually write an article about us. They came by today and had a nice talk with us at WNB.
Nicolle seemed mostly interested in the chromebooks but also asked a lot of general questions. I wont be there tomorrow but I hope someone can be welcoming!
Best,
Paige

Subject: [sudo-info] Interview about Women and Nonbinary Mondays
Hi,
My name is Nicolle Delgado, and I am a Journalist for Oakland North. I
wanted to do a story on the hackerspace and, specifically, on Women and
Nonbinary Mondays, so I was wondering if anyone at Sudo Room would be
available to do an interview about the space, or if anyone could put me in
contact with women and nonbinary people who have attended these weekly
events in the past.
Thank you,
Nicolle
Dear all,
We are hosting a workshop on "open hardware" for environmental research
during Radio night!
Join us at Sudoroom this Wednesday (Dec 3rd) at 7pm to discuss and
assemble environmental kits for air quality monitoring.
** Please drop a line to Jake and I ** if you want to join, so we can
save you a kit.
We will distribute kits for folks who have a safe place to host them and
those who have interest in working with the data on environmental
justice issues.
If you do not want to keep one of the kits, it is all good! You can
still come to hang out and discuss the state-of-the-art in
community-based environmental sensing. The workshop is open to all!
p.s. we have a limited number of kits, so first-come-first-served =)
Best wishes,
LF + Jake.
