Event Details
August Topic: Sorting Fact from Fiction
Join us at Applewood for a conversation and interactive Q&A about critically analyzing the swirl of news and information this election season. We’ll discuss the value of analyzing news sources compared to the web of sensationalized memes and disinformation. Leave the discussion ready to sift through the noise and make informed decisions that help shape our communities. Guest speakers for this event include Jiquanda Johnson of Flint Beat and Sheri Stewart Collins of the Courier.
Sept. 14: Canvassing and Political Activism
Oct. 12: Voter Resources
Bring a sack lunch and join our staff and community partners as we spark discussion on topics related to civic participation. Through the monthly Bring Your Lunch and Learn series, we explore how residents can be informed about issues and the various ways anyone can get involved in their community. We welcome conversations from multiple viewpoints and our goal is not to advocate for one outcome over another, but to create dialogue around the process of making decisions that impact a community.
Sessions are free and last approximately one hour. Held at noon on the second Saturday of the month through October.
