Next Drumbeat meeting: September 16th, 2010

Our next meeting will be on Thursday, September 16th at 6pm at the New Media Rights offices.

Our main goal for the time being is adding organizers who have access to community groups and various skills that they can bring to the table.

On the last Drumbeat phone call we really honed in on the communications strategy around this event : https://wiki.mozilla.org/Drumbeat/events/SanDiego/planningphonecall1 .

Because we have pushed the date of the event to January we really want to take the time focus on inviting extra organizers on board in the upcoming 2 or 3 weeks.

Our New Media Rights panel is another excellent resource to share: http://www.newmediarights.org/drumbeat 

The Mozilla Wikiⁱ resource helps bring organizers up to pace on what we have done so far: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Drumbeat/events/SanDiego

We encourage you to get out in your community and speak to friends, tech groups, community organizers and other people that you know asking them to partner with us in shaping the Drumbeat event. 

We will be hosting a 10 Tactics film screening in screening October 25, 2010, 7-9 pm at the Joyce Beers Center in Hillcrest.  For more information on the 10 tactics visit: http://www.informationactivism.org/ and http://www.messageinabox.tacticaltech.org/

We will be discussing the value on this film in the context of the Drumbeat initiative and additional outreach for the film at this next meeting.

For the next meeting please invite your friends who you think would be great organizers for Drumbeat event.

Thanks,

Art Neill & Mera Szendro Bok
