Join DC Network For Progress (our fb community group) for our 9th gathering for the President's Annual Address to Congress: #AltSOTU #ProgressParty - a Networking Mixer and Resistance Fair with your fellow Progressives, Democrats, Hope Mongers and Change Makers where we can showcase the best that the DMV-area Resistance to FAKE American Values has to offer!
How is it an ALT-SOTU? Well...
It's a FAKE State of the Union!
The speech will be given by a FAKE President!
The crowd will mostly be a FAKE Rubber-Stamp Congress!
We won't be clapping at the FAKE applause lines full of Alternative Facts!
AGENDA:
7PM-10PM: RESISTANCE FAIR @ HEATED OUTDOOR DECK!
If you have a cause you want to promote let us know and we can set you up with space and to make an announcement about what you're doing to ensure Love Trumps Hate in 2017. Email network4progress@gmail.com to sign up.
7PM: "RESISTANCE" NETWORKING PROGRAM @ LOUNGE ROOM -> WITH PIZZA!
Attendees will be invited to come into the Lounge to share how you're participating OR want to participate in the Resistance then we can divide up by DC/MD/VA, Issue, Industry and Skill breakout groups to foster those connections during AND after the event by migrating the conversations to our "Progress Hub" on Slack - sign up to join 200+ other N4Pers who have already joined!
