We’re a grassroots organization focused on improving the lives of our fellow Midwesterners. We protect and mobilize our community in response to the crisis in our federal government. Our power is in action.
Join us for workshops aimed at making us better activists, advocates and allies. All workshops are free. These are on Zoom. RSVP required.
6:30 – 7:15 p.m.
Sheila Shockey is president of Shockey Consulting, which provides governments with planning and public engagement services. A Western Kansas transplant, Sheila is well-versed in how to navigate conversations across all the aisles. Not sure how to talk to that MAGA soccer mom? Interested in how to share your opinion without going fist-to-cuffs? Sheila will offer practical, actionable guidance.
7:15 – 8 p.m.
Dr. Ace Allen is a two-time candidate for the Kansas House of Representatives. Twice, they’ve come THIS CLOSE to winning. He and his wife may have wanted to chuck it all in, but they didn’t. They’ll talk about how they got back in the game and kept fighting for what they believe in. You’ll leave better prepared to navigate your own (eventual) burnout.
6:30 – 7 p.m.
Anne Melia is vice chair of the nonprofit group The Resilient Activist. She will help participants understand the importance of engaging in the political process in ways that are authentic and energizing. Anne will show you how to participate in ways that work best for you.
We’re holding our federally elected officials accountable for their refusal to support initiatives that help Kansans. Join us! We have marches planned across the state.
RSVP here for details and to join a group in your area.
