One or two skilled people identify a venue (public high school gym? Public park? Local, non-corporate movie theater? A stadium?) and schedule a date and time?
Come up with a draft agenda to discuss at the meeting, publish it somewhere accessible online, and request comments to consider additions/revisions?
Do the same thing for a meeting ruleset to ensure it remains productive and not just an excuse to suck up oxygen by venting/ranting? Use something like a ‘talking stick’?
Have petitions ready for signature so attendees can formally record their views and desires upon conclusion of the meeting?
Identify 3 or so topics to rally behind and ask for volunteers to lead or serve on committees to act on them?
I want this stuff to be actionable, not just a “someone should do this!” complaint.
I’m not an organizer… I’m naive on how this kind of thing works…but I’d like to be part of an organized movement to make things trend toward better before it gets worse.
We need to start hosting our own town halls. Invite the fuckers and the media.
I like this idea. What does it look like?
