Good Morning, Raleigh!
It’s been quite a weekend and it seems we might be getting another one, so bundle up and let’s hop into the weeks happenings.
Quick Updates
Unfortunately, Dinner Club has to be pushed back. Our events are based off polls, which showed a lot of interest, but the attendance didn’t line up this time.
Combine that with the weather + the possible snow AGAIN this weekend, it just isn’t feasible at the moment, we will review other options here in February.

Final Thoughts
You know, it’s a complicated thing writing to thousands of you every week.
I always aim to balance what it is you all signed up for here in this newsletter and the things that need to be spoken, as I believe being a bystander is insufficient.
But while I search for that balance here on this platform (and take action outside of it), I do want to urge everyone to show extra empathy and understanding for your neighbors right now. Find ways you can help in your community. Support those in need locally. Create your own resources about things you know how to teach.
It all matters right now more than ever folks.
See you Sunday for the monthly.
