SUMMARY:Political Book Club May 2024
DESCRIPTION:In 2019\, the film “Green Book” won the Academy Award for Best Picture. It depicts the journey of a working-class Italian-American bouncer serving as the driver for an African-American classical pianist during a tour through the racially segregated American South in the 1960s. The movie’s title alludes to the “Negro Motorist Green Book\,” a guidebook offering safe travel accommodations for African-Americans during the Jim Crow era.  For those interested in learning more about the “Green Book\,” please join our upcoming Political Book Club meeting where we will discuss “Overground Railroad: The Green Book and the Roots of Black Travel in America” by Candacy Taylor.

SUMMARY:National Voter Corps Invites you to a Webinar with Secretary of State (SOS)
DESCRIPTION:Secretary of State Weber and LaDoris Cordell have agreed their participation in the event. The timing I presented to the SOS in my original request is 5 minutes introduction\, 30 minutes in conversation … and 20 minutes questions with the end a wrap up.  As co-sponsors\, if you would like a designated person to be able to view any questions that come in in the Q&A please let me know and they will receive the Q&A link in the webinar. The questions will only be seen by the panelists and Q&A coordinators. But I am hoping we will give LaDoris a set of questions in advance and also to the SOS.  Attached is our current draft announcement. … I hope to have the link to LaDoris’s this afternoon but she is busy until 4 so we are talking then.  Her staff asked to see if possible any publicity in advance relating to the event.  Here is what they asked:   Printed title: Shirley N. Weber\, Ph.D.\, California Secretary of State Verbal introductory title: California Secretary of State Dr. Shirley Weber Link to bio and photo:  https://www.sos.ca.gov/administration/about    Thanks for supporting what I think will be an important event with the Secretary of State.  Co-SponsorsLeagues of Women Voters ofPalo Alto\, San Jose and Santa Clara\, Sunnyvale and Cupertino\,Southwest Santa Clara Valley\, South San Mateo CountyAmerican Civil Liberties Union of Northern CaliforniaPursue Justice Committee of Congregation Beth AmQuestions: info@nationalvotercorps.org

Most recently\, Jenny helped Menlo Park submit their 6th Housing Element. Jenny Michel is a native of Palo Alto and a resident of Menlo Park where she resides with her husband and young son.Q&A topics will include housing instability\, educating the community on homelessness\, and how to prepare if one finds themselves in unstable housing.  Watch the recording of our April 11 General Meeting\, Affordable Housing in San Mateo County: Behind the Numbers\, to better understand roadblocks and challenges cities in San Mateo County face as each seeks to meet their state-mandated affordable housing goals.
