Hey all-<br><br>I mentioned at the BoF at SOTMUS that my former employer, Rainforest Action Network, had a good set of anti-oppression principles that were adapted in large part from the<em> Community Coalition for Environmental Justice’s Principles of Unity</em><div style="overflow:hidden;color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-align:left;text-decoration:none;border:medium none">
<br>The Principles: <a href="http://ran.org/anti-oppression-principles">http://ran.org/anti-oppression-principles</a><br><br>Could this task force propose something similar to the community/foundation at large?<br><br>Also, we had mentioned putting out a statement as an OSM task force that identified both goals we wanted to work on and organizations we are partnering with to reach those goals. Some suggestions for orgs that we may want to reach out to:<br>
<br>All the groups on this page: <a href="http://engagementlab.org/who-we-work-with/">http://engagementlab.org/who-we-work-with/</a><br><a href="http://www.domaproject.org">http://www.domaproject.org </a><br><a href="http://www.adl.org/">http://www.adl.org/</a><br>

Perhaps a spreadsheet is in order to see where we have contacts and keep track of relationships? <br>
<br>Also, we might consider coming up something snappy and shareable that we can pitch to sites like <a href="http://www.upworthy.com">www.upworthy.com</a> and <a href="http://www.jezebel.com">www.jezebel.com</a> to raise awareness and outreach for new mappers of every stripe. Maybe an awesome map graphic??<br>
<br>Are there some actionable items that we can all work on or discuss? I am going to be a bit MIA for July/August, but wanted to get this conversation started and let this group know that I hope to jump back in to working on this task force in September. <br>
<br>It was great to meet you all at SOTMUS!<br><br>Cheers-<br>Martha<br><br clear="all"></div><div><div><div><b>Martha Pettit<br></b></div><div>User Experience Designer,</div><div>Diligent Creative</div><div><br></div><div>
