I said "your 'community' space," but honestly, I still want this to be my space, too. I hardly ever make a fuss about any of this stuff because it's all so futile, you know? but in this case, I really want to make my point clear: I think we should rescind our action against Rannette. I think she's been treated unfairly. Even if she is "aggressive" towards you or your compatriots, I don't think we need white dudes policing our space of black women's bodies. Matt, you claim to have acted in another's interest and you offer an injured third party -- let them speak for themselves, because I don't think it's your place right now. If there was a violent incident that threatened our space, let's hear it from a witness or an involved party. "Something Happened" is not good enough. Otherwise "but above all the Omni Commons must maintain a safe, welcoming environment" seems to fly directly in the face of the lived experience of too many black people.

Fwd: [Friends of Awe] $10k grants for creative action against voter suppression

by Cere Davis

Heads up. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Michael Garcia <michael.ryan.garcia(a)gmail.com> Date: Fri, Aug 28, 2020, 11:23 PM Subject: [Friends of Awe] $10k grants for creative action against voter suppression To: <SF-awesome-friends(a)googlegroups.com> Hi folks, There are grants available (up to $10k) for creative projects to fight voter suppression. From an associate: *“Please tell people and orgs you work with who are in the creative activism game. *Or anyone who could come up with a creative, effective project to address the crazy voter problems that are happening all over the country. *We’re having an info session online at noon EST on Monday, Aug 31. *Zoom link <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83821567961?pwd=L2JaWFE4MGg4b1lIWEtoZkcydVVQdz09> . If you’re interested but don’t have a solid idea yet, do come. We’re looking to share and brainstorm together. Here’s a page with more info, and how to apply. We’re asking for *short letters of interest by Sept 2*. Quick turnaround time, but, we want to get these projects funded asap! https://c4aa.org/2020/08/were-funding-creative-u-s-election-projects We’re looking for creative projects that address the biggest voter suppression problems, like: - Lack of poll workers. - Barriers to voting by mail - lack of voter education on the logistics of voting during COVID, misinformation, disinformation. - Voting safely in a pandemic - how can we help people assess the real risk, minimize it, and/or quell uneeded fears that may stop them from voting - Outright voter suppression tactics, especially in Black and Indigenous communities and in communities of other underrepresented groups. - Preparing people for what happens *after*voting - polling indicates half the country may not trust the outcome for various reasons. Lawsuits, challenges, contested elections, and lots of tension are expected. *To combat them, we need artistic and creative projects that aim to:* - Keep polling places staffed. - Ensure that people understand how to effectively vote by mail, drop-off, or in person. - Empower people to confidently vote down-ballot in local elections - Ensure that people know that voting is relevant to the issues that motivated so many people on the streets in the past months (and years) - Monitor election boards and hold them accountable, so they can’t, for example, quietly close polls in communities of color. - Cultivate engagement, fun, humor, joy, and community around voting and elections. - Prepare people for the unknowns that will come after November. The focus is on states with a history of voter suppression and of special interest in this election: Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, but others as well. If you know of projects or people who might be a good fit, please let them know. We’re excited to be able to fund great projects at this critical time.” -- Discuss things you feel awesome about.

blinded signing and free money for sudoroom

by Jake

if you had more than 15 github followers last april you can get $1300 in bitcoin by running these commands: https://www.namebase.io/airdrop you may not feel like $1300 is very much, but if that's the case then just give it to sudoroom :) something that's more interesting than that is the blinded signing (sort of) that they're doing using your ssh key (which is how they limit the money to people whose keys they scraped a year ago) is VERY applicable to Secure Polling System's need for blinded signing (although they're doing it to RSA keys) https://help.namebase.io/article/4vchu01mec-handshake-airdrop-101#why_does_… anyway, everyone who can should do this, and everyone should give money to sudoroom, and everyone should help develop secure polling system. -jake

cryptoseek

by Michael Betz

I've just stumbled across this: https://cryptoseek.co/ It's a blockchain based treasure hunt around the bay area ... I thought it's really clever and was wondering if you guys knew about it, or the person(s) who made it?
