I am in the process of creating a Reno area chapter of Our Revolution, a national group spun of from Bernie Sanders’ campaign and dedicated to the goal of inserting sane progressive ideas into American politics for the sake of creating a civic discourse that focuses on the humane treatment of all human beings affected by the politics of the United States of America. I have told the Our Revolution people that the immediate goal of our local group is to bring people together to talk about how we can do what is necessary to make our community a better place to live for all who live here. My hope is that the conversation will lead to a properly balanced discourse that will consider how decisions made concerning the future of our community actually affect people and then establish guidelines for decision making that put humane treatment of all at the center of the decision-making process.
I hope many will think it worth their time to attend an initial meeting of a group that is not yet a group but one that I hope will come into being.
I have applied for affiliation with the national Our Revolution group.
If you are interested in talking about what the group should be about and do, get in touch. My e-mail address is lafer@unr.edu and my phone number is 775-343-6888.
Please!
