Beloveds,
Back-to-school ads mixed with articles about how to talk to your children about school shootings. How have we allowed that to be possible?

Cheers to a Deeply Impactful 4 Years, Fitz!
You've been asking us to re-imagine what our work looks like.
Our individual roles, new ways to talk to one another, and what Oklahoma we'd want to live in.

A little while back Councilor Jobeth asked us to come out and table for another round of Tenants Know Your Rights training. It was nice to be in that room learning and sharing knowledge with neighbors.

It doesn't matter that folks who don't live here think Oklahoma is affordable, especially if the people who DO live here can't afford it.
Have you hear about the Tenants Know Your Rights training happening tomorrow night? We'll be there!

I'm always grateful to share space with and learn from leaders across the country working towards HIV modernization. It was exciting to see so much of this year's programming be HIV-focused.

“I’m 77 years old. I don’t have time to wait.” Edie Windsor was quoted as saying in a 2018 article by Matt Baume for Them.
