Truth Action Project NYC - MINUTES from the Meeting last night May 18, 2017






ANNOUNCEMENT:
Next Meeting of Truth Action Project, NYC - June 15, 7-9 PM at the 15th Street Quarterly Meeting House, (the big red Quaker buildings at 15 Rutherford Place, NYC)

MINUTES from the Meeting last night May 18, 2017 at 15th Street Meeting House:

  1. TAP NYC at Left Forum. TAP NYC will have a table at the Left Forum. June 2-4 at John Jay College. Wayne Coste will join us. We are printing T-Shirts, they will have the TAP NYC logo and the national TAP logo on the back. We are taking pre-orders for shirts, if you want one, please send an email NOW to sander@loftbedsnyc.com

We discussed the recent controversey between Left Forum and holocaust denier Cat McGuire. (3 of her panels were denied, which is too bad, as they involved Richard Gage, Kevin Barrett, and Michael Springmann). However, Cat’s views on the Holocaust are incompatible with the views of the Left Forum, so IMHO, she was not a good way for the NYC 9/11 Truth community to get into Left Forum.

On this note, Michael recommended people view the 9/11 Visibility podcast, “Staying Reasonable.”
We will include this in our future email campaign (see below).

We noted that we want to always stay “on message” according to AE9/11 Truth, and the TAP mission and strategy.

2. Outreach to Churches  - We discussed the recent flyering we did with a custom Truth flyer aimed at Christian activists, outside the Revolutionary Love conference. Sander discussed doing a direct mail campaign, of a full color flyer, mailed out to a list of all churches, synagogues, mosques and temples in NYC.  REQUEST FOR VOLUNTEERS: Can someone volunteer to help me on this project?

We made edits as well to the Christian Outreach flyer - which is online, here, which the recent changes:



3. UN Outreach Letter: Sander has developed personal contacts inside the UN. Deb L. may be willing to help follow up. Deb, please take a look at the letter below:


4. OUTREACH to develop new Members of TAP NYC - Sander will work on an email campaign, via Mail Chimp - using data he is getting from TAP National contacts and the petition drive. Sander asked the members at the meeting for ideas on what content to include, and members had a bunch of great ideas for links and videos - and Sander took copious notes.

5. BLOCK PARTY - Sander and Deb had an idea to throw a Block Party on East 7th St, between B/C for Truth Action Project, to raise visibility about 9/11 Truth, peace, justice and higher consciousness. We can create a “big tent” and attract other peace, justice, immigrants rights, human rights, spiritual groups. PLEASE VOLUNTEER via Sander to help organize this with us. July 8 or 9 is proposed.


6. STATEN ISLAND - Michael will organize at event with Sander and/or Les in Staten Island, NY, at the local activist bookstore. His recent video-cast event with Richard Gage drew a crowd of 30 people! Woo hoo!

7. CLEAR WATER FESTIVAL in Beacon NY - WOW this looks like a great idea - lots of fun! Let’s go and organize there! Road Trip! Sander can take people up, in his van…..June 17 and 18

Let me know if YOU want to go have FUN and petition for 9/11 JUSTICE!!!!


The 2017 Clearwater Festival will take place on Saturday and Sunday, June 17 and 18 at Croton Point Park in Croton-on-Hudson, Westchester County, NY. Festival gates open to attendees at 9AM.
Clearwater’s Great Hudson River Revival (aka “the Clearwater Festival” or “Revival”) features seven sustainably powered stages with diverse music, dance, storytelling and family-oriented programming as well as a juried Handcrafters’ Village, the Green Living Expo, the Working Waterfront with small boat exhibits and rides, the Artisanal Food & Farm Market, environmental education displays and exhibits, and the Circle of Song where audience participation is the focus.
