Good Morning, everyone!

 

What a pleasure it was to see many of you at Gulf Gathering.

 

I wanted to touch base with you all about a touring project that Karen Savage and I have been working on for this summer.

 

"We know how hard individuals and community organizations are working; as well as, how few resources they have. So while we are there, we plan to make ourselves useful - stuffing envelopes, making phone calls, manning a booth, participating in an action, whatever needs to be done - we're ready to jump in and get to really know folks and the struggle we share." - Karen Savage

 

The Life Support Project can be broken down into 2 goals:

 

"Number one, is to explore, build and expand upon the definition of what real, on-the-ground, support and resource sharing looks like to EJ/ Frontline communities who are dealing with extreme extraction issues. The second, is to lift up those who are working to protect life in these areas, in their own voice. We will be connecting folks to each other and to various forms of media through video, art and written word. This is at root a story telling intiative that goes far beyond a simple one time approach. We want to celebrate your wins, mourn with you your losses, and lift you and your organization up to the rest of the world."

- Cherri Foytlin

 

This is an invite for you and your community to be a part of this exciting journey.

 

 

We are scheduling for this project NOW. Please respond to myself or Karen ASAP if you are interested.

In solidarity,

Cherri Foytlin and Karen Savage
