August 28, 1963

Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his "I Have a Dream" speech from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial to a crowd of half a million gathered on the Mall in Washington, D.C. They gathered there for jobs and freedom.

1983: Three hundred thousand marched in Washington on the 20th anniversary of MLK's "I Have A Dream" speech for the second
"March on Washington for Jobs, Peace and Freedom."

Subject: Families in Texas need our help

Our hearts are breaking for the victims of Hurricane Harvey--the Houston area has now seen an unprecedented amount of rain and flooding, causing several deaths and leaving thousands displaced.

If you are wondering how to help those in need after Harvey, here are a few options:
   

1. To give to immediate relief efforts, you can donate to any of these local Texas food banks listed in Texas Monthly.¹
2. Families with young children, the homeless, and people with disabilities are particularly vulnerable right now. To help affected families, you can donate to Driscoll Children's Hospital and the Texas Diaper Bank. To help the homeless, you can give to the Houston Coalition for the Homeless, and to help with evacuations for people with disabilities, you can give to Portlight.²
3. Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner has also established a local Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund. Here's how to donate online or by mail.
4. To help animals impacted by the floods, you can support Austin Pets Alive!, also recommended by Texas Monthly.

Officials are predicting that the flooding will get worse.³ Many people in Texas have lost everything and it will take years to rebuild their lives. No amount of help is too little or too much.

This is obviously just a partial list. If you'd like to review other options, check out these articles from the Houston Chronicle, Texas Monthly, and the Huffington Post.

Subject: [JVP-NewsAndUpdates] Join JVPers at the March to Confront White Supremacy from C'ville to DC

Sparked by the events in Charlottesville a few weeks ago, a large coalition of clergy, individuals, and activists launched a 110+ mile march from Charlottesville to D.C. yesterday, to be followed by a sustained encampment and further actions in D.C. in the weeks ahead. The marchers are demanding the removal of officials who enable white supremacists, including President Trump, along with the undoing of policies that embolden and protect them.

The march, which is lead by Charlottesville faith leaders, students and community leaders and by veteran organizers from the Movement for Black Lives, Women's March, Working Families Party, United We Dream, Color of Change, and many others, stepped off Monday August 28 from Charlottesville. They'll be on the road for about 10 days, arriving in DC September 6th to start the next phase of the action. Jewish Voice for Peace is supporting the march and we're organizing a delegation of JVP members to join.

If you are planning to join the march or the DC action, please let us know by filling out this quick form here. You can join the march for just a day or two, or support the action in DC later in September. We'll connect you with other JVPers and support as best we can.

You can read about the march so far here in Reuters, Associated Press, Los Angeles Times, and follow the marchers on Twitter or Facebook.

To get updates about the march, sign up to join, or to support with monetary or supply donations, head to their website at cville2dc.us.

From the organizers:

What are we doing and why?

We are marching from Charlottesville to DC to demonstrate our commitment to confronting white supremacy wherever it is found. We can no longer wait for Donald Trump or any elected official to face reality and lead. We are uniting right now to reckon with America's long history of white supremacy and to demand leadership that will side with those of us who will no longer abide it.

What do we want?

This is a time for us to live our values and confront white supremacy in our government and in our history. We are fighting for each other and our common humanity, demanding leadership that will actively fight this ideology of hate, and calling for the removal of all those, including the president, who refuse to do so. Not only will we not accept white supremacy in the White House but we demand an agenda that repairs the damage done by its legacy.

I know lots of JVPers are out in the streets fighting white supremacy locally in Boston, Durham, the Bay Area and around the country. So glad to be part of this community, amidst everything going on right now.

P.S. ICYMI, here's JVP's statement about the racism and antisemitism on display in Charlottesville earlier this month and an interview with a member who was on the ground protesting in Charlottesville.

Sign up here to receive a daily email round up of news of interest to JVP, highlights of JVP's work and members in the news, as well as opinion and analysis highlights, sent at 9 am every M-F. If you have suggestions for things to include please submit them here.

Subject: FW: Top Intelligence Officer makes SHOCKING Trump claim

This TREASONOUS LYING INCOMPETENT excuse for our President is going to get a lot of Americans and other nationals killed if he is not removed from office!  The Republicans have the power to move for impeachment but they are too cowardly to act against what they know to be the right thing to do.  The Democrats are running in as many ways as there are possible instead of really focusing and rallying the nation against the national threat of "Traitor Trump".  Most people know or believe that he is mentally unstable and a threat to our national security! So when will our Congressional, intelligence and military officials take the required actions to protect all Americans and perhaps the world?

FW: Top Intelligence Officer makes SHOCKING Trump claim

Donald Trump is NOT fit to be President of the United States. Click here if you agree >>

Former Intelligence Chief James Clapper just sounded the alarm:
  

Clapper is SPOT ON. Trump's exhibited downright erratic behavior since the very beginning of his campaign.

But now that Trump actively sympathizes with white supremacists and spends most of his days attacking the media on Twitter, we must make it loud and clear: Trump is NOT fit to serve.

If you agree Trump is not fit to be President, make it known right now:
   

Donald Trump is not fit to be President! I AGREE >>

We must fight back every day as Democrats and as Americans if our country is going to survive Trump's Presidency.

Subject: Add your name: We reject the Nashville Statement

Yesterday, a group of religious-right activists released a new theological statement condemning lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people and purporting to excommunicate Christians who affirm them.

The so-called "Nashville Statement" not only claims that "it is sinful to approve of homosexual immorality or transgenderism" - it says that "such approval constitutes an essential departure from Christian faithfulness."

This new statement is making headlines and causing deep pain for LGBT people, so it's time to stand up and show how many Christians repudiate this hateful theology.

Add your name: Christians reject the Nashville Statement's theology of hate.

Subject: FW: Seeking Dayton Riverfront Master Plan Input

The Dayton Riverfront Master Plan is officially underway. As you may recall, the Plan will focus on greater downtown’s waterways and explores the tremendous potential our rivers have in enhancing vibrancy, livability, and economic vitality. The study area for this Riverfront Master Plan centers on downtown Dayton and extends along all four waterways: the Great Miami, Mad, and Stillwater rivers and the Wolf Creek.

Last week, we held two public input sessions at the new Downtown Dayton Library as well as some information booths at the Second Street Market and the African American Cultural Festival.  We also plan to have a presence at the Hispanic Heritage Festival in September.  We will continue to seek public input during the month of September.

The Dayton Riverfront Master Plan Steering Committee would like to offer the opportunity to come give a brief presentation on the Plan and provide an update as well as get additional community input.  If there is an opportunity to get on your neighborhood association or organization’s meeting agenda, we would love the opportunity to come speak with you.  I would also encourage you to take a 10-minute interactive survey to help us learn more on how you use and interact with the rivers at www.daytonriverfrontplan.org if you have not already done so.

DAYTON METRO LIBRARY, REBUILDING TOGETHER DAYTON & WYSO

Dayton Metro Library is collaborating with Rebuilding Together Dayton and WYSO in a partnership that will not only help low-income seniors have safer homes, it will also preserve and share their unique memories, stories and perspectives on life in the Dayton area.

The Senior Voices project addresses both the physical and mental well-being of older citizens, particularly residents of West Dayton. Homeowners who qualify for home repair and safety modifications through Rebuilding Dayton Together will be encouraged to participate in interviews conducted by trained volunteers. The recorded Senior Voices stories will be archived as part of the Dayton Metro Library’s Local History collection and air as a radio series on WYSO.

“With this collaboration, three community-minded organizations are working together to focus attention on the lives of older adults in our area,” said Dave Hicks, Library Volunteer Services Manager. “Rebuilding Together Dayton brings their skills and experience with home rehab, and WYSO brings its commitment to sharing citizen voices. The Dayton Metro Library, which serves older adults in our area through Homebound Delivery, the Lobby Stop Library and many Lifelong Learning initiatives, is recruiting and coordinating volunteers, particularly those age 55 and older. This will be an especially interesting and rewarding volunteer opportunity,” he said.
These volunteers are needed:
    

• HOMEOWNERS who meet the age and income requirements to qualify for Rebuilding Together Dayton’s home safety and efficiency modifications.
• VOLUNTEERS AGE 55+ who have a story to tell about their lives and the changes they’ve seen in their community.
• VOLUNTEERS OF ANY AGE to help install materials for safer, more efficient homes.

WYSO Public Radio will train volunteers to collect stories and create a radio and web series in early 2018. General Manager Neenah Ellis said, “We plan to air at least fifty stories in 2018. We expect to hear important and compelling stories about life in the Dayton area.”

Rebuilding Together Dayton is an affiliate of the largest volunteer home repair organization in the nation, providing home rehabilitation for low-income Dayton area homeowners, particularly the elderly, so they can live safely and independently in their own homes. Typical home repairs and accessibility modifications include carpentry, electrical work, plumbing repair, painting, grab bars, handrails, trash removal and yard work.

The Senior Voices collaboration received a Del Mar Social Innovation Award for Older Adult Programming from The Dayton Foundation’s DMH-Fund. The award recognizes innovations from area nonprofits that are working to address issues faced by older adults.

Subject: [OFFICIAL-L] From the President's Desk

Dear Campus Community,

This week we welcome thousands of new and returning students to our Dayton and Lake Campuses. It is an invigorating time as we enthusiastically begin another academic year with a renewed commitment to transforming the lives of our students and the communities we serve.

We are a university where we measure success not by those we exclude but by those we include. We are a community that commits to creating an environment where every student learns and grows without prejudice, intimidation, or discrimination. Our diversity of perspective, thought, and individuality is our greatest strength.

As we celebrate the beginning of another year, many of us are also wrestling with the impact of the recent actions of others in Charlottesville, Virginia. Acts of racism, anti-Semitism, violence, and hatred continue to exist in our country. Let me be clear: Hateful actions and speech are not welcome at Wright State University. The senior leadership team at Wright State is united—we strongly condemn the violence that occurred in Charlottesville, Virginia. This behavior is incongruent with our commitment to creating and sustaining a safe, accepting, and welcoming environment for people of all identities and backgrounds.

My hope is you will join me in doing the following:
   

• Be willing to engage in difficult yet civil and productive conversations with others who believe differently than you do;
• Counter negative speech with positive speech; and
• Counter hateful action with acts of kindness.

I encourage every member of the Wright State family to shine a light on incidents of violence and hatred. If you experience or become aware of such incidents, you are encouraged to report them via our anonymous reporting system or directly to the Office of Equity and Inclusion by email at oei@wright.edu or telephone at (937) 775-3207.

We are a community that is committed to justice, inclusion, freedom of expression, and civil discourse. We will remain steadfast in our opposition to discrimination in any form.

As an educational institution, we have the ability to transform lives through the varied curricular and co-curricular experiences offered in our local and expanded communities. Please join me in welcoming our new and returning students, staff, faculty, and alumni to a community where everyone is welcome and where we celebrate the contributions that diversity and inclusion bring to our campus and to our lives.
