Greetings,

The flow of feedback we're getting on our first public hearing is helping us plan for the next one on Aug. 26-27. We're working especially hard to attract statement-givers from among police and city officials.
  • We've planned another GTRC Social for 7-9 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 9, at the Green Bean. We had fun last time and hope to see old and new faces next time.
  • Using the News & Record's podcasts, volunteers have begun transcribing the statements made at the first hearing (Thank you, volunteers). Anyone interested in joining their ranks is welcomed. Visit our blog for more information.
  • This week's progress indicator: More than 650 people now are on our Ubuntu Weekly mailing list, up more than 85 percent since April.
  • Volunteers of the Week: Scott Roehm, our departing intern from Fordham Law School, who - among assorted other helpful things - applied his study of human rights law to examining some of the issues surrounding Nov. 3; and Cory Weschler, a departing intern from San Francisco State University who - among assorted other helpful things - took numerous statements. Thanks, Scott and Cory!
Our Upcoming Events:
  • GTRC Social, 7-9 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 9, the Green Bean, 341 S. Elm St.
  • "What happened on and after Nov. 3, 1979?", second Public Hearing, 2-9 p.m. Friday, Aug. 26; 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 27, Location TBA.
  • "What does the past have to do with the present and the future?", final Public Hearing, 2-9 p.m. Friday, Sept. 30; 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 1 at UNCG.
