Dear John,

Akron City Council has another development before them, and they are working with Summa to build luxury apartments and parking, displacing long-term residents and greenspace. You can help by speaking before council today, Monday (11/6) at 7p and/or attending an upcoming community meeting:

• Nov. 7th, 6-8pm @ 800 E. Market St., Family of Faith Church

• Nov. 15th, 6pm @ Goodyear Library (60 Goodyear Boulevard)

There is a housing crisis worldwide and in Akron, but the only housing development being discussed is hoping to lure in rich residents and destroy the already brittle fabric of community in this city.

We also ask that you demand that Akron City Council rescind their misguided resolution that supports the lies of Israel and ignores the history of aggression against Palestinians. You can watch Council live on YouTube and members can follow along with us on Slack.

TUESDAY IS ELECTION DAY! It’s time to go out and VOTE YES for Issues 1 and 2; everyone in Ohio needs to VOTE YES on Issues 1 and 2 to legalize abortion and cannabis. You can confirm your polling location and view your ballot here. It has been a long few months of knocking doors and talking to folks to get these issues to pass. Regardless of the outcome, we invite everyone to take a moment and appreciate each other on Wednesday (11/8) at The Green Dragon Inn at 7pm for some fun. Friends, partners, members, and non-members — all are welcome.
