Latest thoughts:..whether there is a street mtg tonight or not ( and i am
starting to think LOTS about creative ideas we can flesh out for the
Community Gathering On MOnday re MBTA..eg a 'flashdance' to 'The Wheels on
the Bus Go Round and Round'., get Naoh t spearhead the song teaching, make
Valentines for busdrivers to deliver 2/14)
I think we need to create momentum and unity in OB on this issue and to do
that we have to have interesting things for people to do..while they also
leaflet...hope some ideas will be generated in SOmerville tonight.
so to keep the issue front and centered I would be willing to go to GA
tonight ( where is it?) to report back from Street Working Group on the
leafletting last night, encourage folks to address MBTA creatively at
CASA's gathering on MOnday..and to make sure folks have leaflets to hand
out on their own..and to get folks to sign up for MBTA list/attend the
Action Summit on Sunday..we should also plan for another leafletting..maybe
before CASA Community Gathering at Park St on Monday???
Lee is frustraed by the many OB folks who are contacting him and our
apparent lack of organization in OB..i think Street should act as the
Official Occupy Boston MBTA working group protem whose main purpose now is
to coordinate with Somerville and Community groups and to get some actions
rolling while we are thinking of down the road.The next meeting of the
community groups is on January 30 and 'Maureen' (dont know who that
is)..scheduled a OB mtg with Ace on Feb 8 or 9..the later is quite
confusing and adds to Lee's confusion..
I am not sure how long I could stay at the Street mtg..begin at 5 if I meet
with Lee at 6.but think we should look at Brett's time line..
