Give Thanks - The Meet Up
Join us on this beautiful Saturday afternoon in Brooklyn. We will be meeting at the Brooklyn Public Library. We will walk together and chat about how we spent our year and why we are thankful. Our community meet-ups are necessary for us to remain on the ground level. Join our co-founder Tahyira Savanna in Brooklyn. Our session will be recored for an upcoming episode on our podcast.
For Us Nation is a non-profit club designed for Millennial marginal community. For too long, there has been no seat at the “table” for us, so we decided to make a difference. It is time FOR US to be there FOR US.
We invite local community leaders, elected officials, educators, business owners, and folks who want to join into the larger conversation.
TARGET: For Us is seeking participants for a new documentary on the power of marginal storytelling in the United States. Please watch our interview with our friends from the TMI Project.
Remember November
Join us as we take a much needed break together. It’s been well deserved break together. It’s been well…. a trying year. But thanking all our grandmamas, both past and present, that we are here. Before we breakout into our separate family rooms for the holidays, we wanted to present one last namaste. We’ll being doing some yoga, some drinking, and some free form thinking.
RSVP is free but mandatory.
Listen to Him: Male Victims of Domestic Violence
For Us Nation would like to create space for men to be vulnerable and able to express their history with domestic violence, specifically when they have been the victims.
1 in 4 men have, or are, victims of domestic violence, and many are "silent sufferers". October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month and we wish to give a platform to men for them to discuss and bring awareness to this topic. Hopefully this will be one of many.
For Us Nation is a nonprofit, and therefore we ask that you donate to assist us in creating more programs, hiring mentors, and building a bigger and better nonprofit.
