[sudo-discuss] BOGSS Congress/Kickoff (FINAL REMINDER)

Hello All, I've heard back from a lot of folks. Just want to put a final reminder in before we kick off the congress process. Would really love to see representation from as many OMNI collectives as possible. Please respond to this email by Tuesday September 6th! Please email me if you are interested in serving on the BOGGS congress. You must be a someone who faces gender and/or race based oppression to participate. See previous email for details.
