Hi Steven:

I plan to be at the Omni on Sunday and can help steward this event. My number is 512 460 9617. I am available via phone tomorrow to chat about the best way I can help with this event.

Best,

Mary

Dear all,

What will the Omni do in response and in support of the BlackLivesMatter movement? I've had a few conversations around this question the over the last couple weeks and I imagine others have as well.

This coming Sunday (Dec. 14th), we'll be hosting Catalyst Project in the Ballroom for an event titled "Black Liberation and White Anti-Racism in the Time of Ferguson." They've sent out an invite to the public and through their own networks, which has been viewed by more than 23,000 people. Over the past week I've met people who've been receiving flyers to the event during the marches through Berkeley and Oakland, which leads me to believe there will be a lot of people here, a lot of new people from our wider community.

I'm helping to bottom-line this event and could really use your help! 

1. Reply to this thread if you are down to help steward our space and include your phone # (if you feel comfortable, send privately, etc.) as I want to be certain we are able to generously host all the folks in our community who will be coming to our space to respond to recent events

2. They'd like amplified sound and I'm not 100% certain what our current situation is - where is our sound system? do we have one adequate for this event? and can someone volunteer to run sound?

3. What has been the latest count of chairs at the Omni? do we need to get more chairs?

with love

st
