During summer 2020, I undertook a 76-day, ~3800 mile bicycle trip across the United States from the Atlantic to the Pacific Oceans, encountering extraordinary people, landscapes, and birds as I wheeled my way through towns on the brink of collapse, Native American lands, and vast private ranches. Witnessing people’s reactions to #BlackLivesMatter and other pressing issues taught me about the forces causing division in this country and how we can mend them.

Women United Mayo School Supply Drive - Support Young Students and Their Families While Learning Remotely
Adapting our tradition of reading to students at Dr. Reginald Mayo Early Childhood School (185 Goffe Street, New Haven, CT 06511), this year we will be inspiring students and educators virtually. Young learners need supplies to support their interactive, hands-on learning at home during the COVID-19 pandemic. Teachers use these specific materials during their live virtual class sessions. Children will be able to complete follow-up activities with your support!
Due to the uptick in cases and change to COVID restrictions we will not be hosting a “Drive-up” toy collection but online donations only. Please see the attached flyer to send out to your departments, contacts, and post on social media sites.
Thank you to all our partners Yale Police Department, Yale University, Yale Veterans Network, New Haven American Legion Post 210, WYBC 94.3, Cricket Wireless, and the US Marine Corps Reserves New Haven unit as we look forward to working with you to keep making this a success and in the years to come.
Performance artist, comedian, and elected representative Kristina Wong is taking her raucous campaign online to arouse civic engagement and counter-hijack our democracy! An actual elected representative of Koreatown in Los Angeles, she was once a scrappy performance artist with a bright future in reality television. Now, the political system she used to ridicule is the one she’s become!!! Is she more effective as a performance artist or a politician? Is there actually a difference between performance art and politics? Can she Abolish ICE?!

The talk will also discuss the implications of these engagement efforts for future relations with Pyongyang.
