“Here we are at Hanks”
“Dear PoPville,
This week in DC and around the world people have been taking part in the second action from the 10 actions 100 days campaign started by the Women’s March. The goal of the campaign is to keep the momentum from the march going. “Huddles” have been formed where small groups are meeting to action plan in people’s homes/ restaurants and bars. Thus far 4,037 huddles have been formed worldwide. There were numerous ones in our own neighborhood this week. The momentum is so strong that once a huddle was published on the site it filled to complicity right away. The Women’s March Campaign provides everything the facilitator needs. The facilitator is only responsible for hosting/ finding a place and then publishing the huddle to the site.
Hank’s Cocktail Bar in Petworth was kind enough to host our Petworth Huddle. I thought they were a very appropriate place to meet since they are strong believers in our cause. The staff at Hank’s went out of their way to accommodate us. It was great experience, meeting new people from the neighborhood and working on an action plan to resist the damage the current administration is causing the country.
The idea is to keep these huddles going as we continue to #resist.”
