No matter who we are or where we live, we all have the capacity to move the needle of change in our communities. This is a workshop about taking action for people who may not yet see themselves as activists.In this workshop we’ll explore a collective approach to tackling local issues with the help of Randal Wyatt, a lifelong Portland resident who created Taking Ownership PDX, an organization which renovates and revives Black-owned homes and businesses. Drawing from years of community organizing, Randal will guide us in thinking about the specific issues impacting our communities and help us collaborate on designing grassroots models to address them. We will also explore how we can connect our own initiatives to other solutions—those imagined by our fellow participants as well those taking shape in our communities right now—and to grow our reach and our impacts.
This workshop is a chance to dig in, ditch the bureaucratic red tape, and contribute to multi-faceted solutions to pressing local challenges—all while sharing perspectives and lifting up others who want to do the same. Let’s imagine the actions we can take, starting today, starting together.
This is a free, all-ages event. Advanced registration is required. Participants are encouraged to join us for a half hour before the event for optional conversation and socializing.
