<span style="font-size: 9.5pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34);">A group of MIT community members, including faculty, students, postdocs, and staff, are organizing a large-scale civic engagement and action event on <span class="gmail-m-7025369211808408204gmail-m8045311844437818640gmail-abn">April
18</span>, devoted to the political, economic, and social challenges facing us today. This event will include lectures, town-hall sessions, film screenings, and workshops, and is open to all parts of the MIT and broader local community. (A similar event
is taking place at Princeton University TODAY <span class="gmail-m-7025369211808408204gmail-m8045311844437818640gmail-abn">Monday, March 6</span>, with dozens of sessions and hundreds of people intent on participating: </span><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="https://dayofaction.princeton.edu/" target="_blank" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">https://dayofaction.princeton.edu</span></a>)</span><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34);"><br>
<br>
At MIT we have a core organizing team in place, spaces booked, and broader publicly stated support from dozens of faculty, students, postdocs, and staff. <span class="gmail-m-7025369211808408204gmail-m8045311844437818640gmail-abn">April 18</span> is a student
holiday, but not a university holiday, so participation in this event does not require cancelling classes on the part of faculty or skipping classes on the part of students. We are now putting out a public call for participation:<br>
<br>
</span><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.mitdayofaction.org/" target="_blank" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">http://www.mitdayofaction.org</span></a></span><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34);"><br>
<br>
If you support the aims of this event, please consider participating! There are so many cool things in the works. You can indicate your support by signing the form (there is an opt-out so your name doesn't need to appear publicly, but you can express support
or volunteer to help).</span><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
