Friends --
We will be having our
April General Meeting this Saturday, April 4, 10am-noon via Zoom. Please register for the meeting
here:
https://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJMudOiopjwj-uSWe0YZ56AiVchcXNv-dg
After registering you will receive
a confirmation email with information about joining the meeting. We
recommend installing and joining the call via the Zoom app rather than
dialing in by phone, if possible.
This has been a difficult several
weeks since our last General Meeting. We were deeply saddened to learn
that State Representative Isaac Robinson died from complications
related to COVID-19 on Sunday. Our thoughts are with Isaac’s family
and in particular his father, Roger, a founding member of Detroit DSA
and an integral member of our chapter. Isaac was a true advocate for
Detroit and Hamtramck. This is a tremendous loss.
At our meeting Saturday we will
check in, talk about where we are as a chapter, and how we continue to
organize amid a pandemic.
We will also tend to important
chapter business. We will be doing our third reading and second vote
on amending our chapter bylaws. A straw poll will be taken on Zoom and
the results will be tabulated and validated following the
meeting.
The current bylaws can be found
here. The proposed new bylaws are here.
If you have any proposed amendments
to the proposed bylaws that we voted to approve last month, please
send them to [email protected] no later than 5 pm on
Friday. It will be very difficult to take amendments “from
the floor” during a Zoom call. Only dues paying members are eligible
to vote or propose amendments.
We look forward to reconnecting on
Saturday.
In solidarity,
Danielle

healthy!
