Rally to Prevent Gun Violence
There is a rally to prevent gun violence today at Carondelet Village Auditorium, 3:30 pm to 5pm. Address is 525 Fairview Avenue S, St. Paul, MN 55116
Many excellent speakers will be in attendance.
Update on parking:
We are looking forward to seeing all of you today in the Carondelet Village 2nd floor auditorium for our rally. Randolph Ave is torn up and not sure how accessible the parking lots off Randolph will be. However the lots on Fairview are open and Fairview is open from Randolph past Carondelet Village to access them. It should be a great program. See you there at 3:30 pm!
Speed Networking at Summit Brewery
The Center for Broadcast Journalism, reporter Jasmine McBride, wrote an article about Twin Cities Nonviolent’s inaugural speed networking event at Summit Brewery. On the evening of the Summer Solstice, 40 some climate and justice organizations very chaotically roamed from table to table finding groups of people they had never talked to before.
They shared their passions and advocacy efforts for our communities and our only home. It was a smashing success! Much of the feedback was about how much fun people had and how much they learned about the organizations that were represented. Stay tuned for a repeat performance!
Tears, Fears, Guns & Solutions
Tears, Fears, Guns & Solutions, a film about the impacts of gun violence on teens and young adults in Minneapolis and St. Paul, is the latest in films offered to our community by Twin Cities Nonviolent. With no real safety net, this film shows how organizations like the YMCA, Twin Cities Nonviolent and Project Sweetie Pie are working to help young people stay away from gangs. Take a look at the programs and communities who are helping to make a difference with solutions to tears, fears and guns through realistic, effective actions.
