SUMMARY:Tump's War on the Environment: the Case for Ecosocialism
DESCRIPTION:This meeting will take place at UNT’s Chemistry Building\, room 253. \nIn the short time that Donald Trump has been in office\, his administration has deepened the war on our environment. From giving the green light to the Dakota Access Pipeline to appointing Pruitt as head of the EPA to deepening imperialist wars\, Trump has shown that\, if unchallenged\, he will wreak havoc on an environment which is already facing global climate change.  \nThe Trump administration’s attacks on the environment uncover a deeper drive of capitalism to make profit\, at whatever the cost. Capitalism’s constant drive for expansion inevitably undermines environmental sustainability. \nAfter only being in office for a few months\, we see what the new president has to offer: environmental racism\, war\, mass murder\, and environmental destruction. \nIn order to challenge this\, we must build mass movements which are able to connect on an international scale\, uniting social movements with environmental movements and labor movements. In the US\, our movements must be independent of both the Republicans and the Democrats. In the process of fighting for reforms and building broad movements\, we also need a longer-term vision of a different world: a world based on cooperation\, equality\, democracy\, ecological sustainability\, and workers’ power — a socialist world. \nWe invite you to join this conversation with us. We will have 4 presenters speaking on these topics and time for discussion.

SUMMARY:TPI Prison Services Committee Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Come and learn about our Prison Services Committee\, doing work to support and advocate for incarcerated trans persons across Texas.  \nOne object of all our committees is to grow participation and encourage leadership through support\, encouragement\, and community participation! We hope to rotate facilitators to give people experience planning and running meetings\, with help from committee leaders when needed. \nIn Prison Services\, we are currently writing letters and taking on other tasks to support incarcerated trans persons. One task is design an publication of two texts written by incarcerated members on surviving prison in general\, and surviving solitary confinement.  \nWe’ll be teaching the basics about letter writing and coming together to support each other with advice and debriefing (some of the letters and situations can be very heavy and emotionally challenging) so we all help each other do this better. \nPlease post questions or suggestions if you have any! \nGuests are welcome; come out and learn! We really need help with writing letters\, so if you can come help\, please do!

SUMMARY:Tax Day Demo to Say: No More Taxes for War!
DESCRIPTION:The U.S. already spends more on the military than any country in the world.  Trump wants to INCREASE the already-bloated military budget while cutting funding for human needs!

Participants will share pie charts and “cost of war” trade-offs (what could have been financed in Dallas County with the money we spent on war) with tax-day passersby about how their federal tax dollars are being spent and encourage them to express their opinions about where their money should go. \nThey will also join the North Texas Light Brigade at the Main Post Office 8:30pm to convey their messages in lights. \nWHEN:  Tuesday\, April 18\, 2017\n8:00pm – demonstration\, flyering\, & greeting taxpayers\n8:30pm – tax day light display at P.O. with North Texas Light Brigade \nWHERE:  Dallas Main Post Office\n401 Dallas-Ft. Worth Turnpike (I-30 & Sylvan)\nDallas\, Texas 75260 \nAs always\, this is a peaceful\, nonviolent demonstration. Please wear dark clothing.

SUMMARY:Prison Letter Writing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Interested in writing letters to incarcerated trans or gender nonconforming persons\, but need some guidance and encouragement? Want to write but not sure what to say? Or afraid that you might not know how to help someone advocate for their safety or healthcare needs? Or maybe you would rather write while in a social setting\, sharing space with friends and community? Then join us for the Prison Letter Writers Workshop! \nTPI’s Prison Services Committee writes letters to incarcerated trans persons\, but we wanted to provide additional opportunity to support our siblings behind the walls. If you want to learn and try writing someone\, maybe just a one-off letter of support and encouragement without committing to write more\, or see what it is like before committing\, this is a time to do that! \nWe’ll talk a little about our work overall with incarcerated persons and some of the individuals we are connected with. And we’ll do our best to answer any questions you may have. \nIf you are interested in writing a letter or just learning about this work\, stop by around 6pm or later (we close about 9pm) and chat with others and consider writing a letter! \nAlso\, we are considering moving this to Saturday. If you would like to participate and a Saturday meeting would be better or worse for you\, let us know whether or not to move the time: nell@tpride.org.

SUMMARY:Gotta Move Event
DESCRIPTION:A couple weeks ago\, TPI was informed that we had to move from our current location (along with all other tenants) because the building has been sold and reportedly will be demolished. \nWe’ve found a great new space! And now we need to get there. Address is 614 West Davis\, Dallas 75208 (above Bolsa Restaurant). \nWe don’t have a lot\, and most is small (files really are the largest part of what we have)\, but there are some larger items that we need help with! We do have to do this all between April 16 and 21\, so here are the deets! \nSchedule:\nApril 15\, Nell starts packing things; stop for project meeting @ 5pm \nApril 16\, Nell at both locations moving small things by car\n. . . . . .  Billie Jean has truck\, may be available\n. . . . . .  Alexander Kujak available unless work calls \nApril 17\, Nell at both locations moving small things by car\n. . . . . .  Theo Johnson\, available\, has big Pilot (hold file cabinet?)\n. . . . . .  Jabriel Williamson available in the morning\n. . . . . .  stop for Prison Letter Workshop @ 6-8pm \nApril 18\, no moving due to events 9am to late evening \nApril 19\, Nell at both locations moving small things by car\n. . . . . .  stop for Prison Committee meeting @ 6-9pm\n. . . . . .

Other things are less heavy and I think I can get all with one helper. \n214-394-9835 (text is fine) or nell@tpride.org \nDistance between old space and new is 2.5 miles. \nThanks !!!
