Cascadia Anti-White Supremacy Action Summit
November 4, 2017 @ 12:00 pm - 6:00 pm
This one day summit is being held to address the rise of white supremacy groups in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest, and those using the term Cascadia. We encourage anyone who cares about these issues, and has been concerned with the rise of posters and propaganda to please attend.
Session 1: 12-3pm will host workshops and presentations to help further and deepen our understanding of what Cascadia, bioregionalism and the Cascadia movement is and stands for.
BREAK: 3-4pm Food will be provided.
Session 2: 4-6pm we discuss the issues of white supremacy currently facing our region, country and city, listen to different front line communities and groups, and then break into different workgroups that will meet weekly to help combat and confront these issues wherever they are found.
In the second session, individuals will be invited into work groups that will meet weekly to:
1) Research and Investigate current white supremecist individuals, groups in the region, and draft a history of the groups.
2) Create & Maintain a ‘Cascadians Against Hate’ Website that will track updates, issues and a calendar of events.
3) Create an Allies and Outreach Coalition to make sure that frontline communities, groups and voices are represented, and to support in the solidarity that these groups request, and ensure events end up on the calendar.
4) Art & Postering: Group to create graphic media and posters to go up around the city.
5) Digital Media & Marketing: To work online to combat the rise of misiniformation, and white supremecist marketing.
If you are a group that would like to partner, or if you would like to help organize, please email cascadianow@gmail.com.
