Rochester Area FreeThinkers (RAFT)

This will be a discussion meeting. One topic we would like to cover is whether we would like RAFT to make a contribution to a social justice organization at this time. Please think about this and bring suggestions. A national organization is Color of Change (https://colorofchange.org/about/) and the Minneapolis organization Reclaim the Block recommends organizations listed in this document: http://bit.ly/fundthecommunity. Of course there is always the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, etc.

This will be a guided tour of some of the public art on or near bike trails in Rochester. Most of the riding will be on multi-use paths and bike lanes on streets. I expect that the route will be about 8 miles.

Virtual Happy Hour means you will have to BYOB of course, but come hangout anyway! Have some food if you want, just chat and get a sense of connection once again!

For September, attendees are asked to bring an article to discuss. It is most useful if each person bringing an article can post a link to the article in a comment on the event. The Zoom link will be provided a few days before the event.
