Get ready … we are hosting an open house LIVE event within our Mighty Networks Online Community!
Saturday, January 1st, 2022
1:00 pm CDT
Meet our founder, Sami Aaron, and learn all the tips and tricks to being part of our new online community, hosted through Mighty Networks. Start your New Year off with knowing you are not alone in your concerns for an environmentally sound future.
You’ll have the opportunity to chat and ask questions about the online platform and learn just how you can get the most from our content and members.
We welcome anyone whose heart and mind are shifting towards a deeper understanding of our changing climate and the social injustices that accompany that change. We invite those who feel that they would benefit from connecting with a like-minded community that offers support and guidance to resilience in a way that is uplifting, pragmatic, and visionary.
The Resilient Activist (TRA) hosts this online discussion community that consists primarily of discussion on topics related to resilience, meditation, eco-distress, Earth-Care, and Self-Care. We also host live events, supportive group gatherings, and courses and we expect this site will evolve over time in response to the needs of the members.
Full membership access is free, and donations are gratefully accepted. You are enthusiastically welcome whether or not you contribute financially. As we add new groups, events, and courses, there may be fees charged for those new programs, but fees will always be based on a sliding scale in order to keep our services accessible to all.
The Resilient Activist JEDI (Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion) Book Club
Are you interested in learning more about justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) in America with a group of like-minded and open-hearted people?
Do you enjoy reading and discussing books that expand your understanding of yourself and the world?
If these questions touch a chord, then The Resilient Activist JEDI Book Club is for you!
The February JEDI Book Club will meet on Tuesday, February 15th from 7:30 to 8:30. We will be reading Bury My Heart at Chuckie Cheese’s by Tiffany Midge. Tiffany is a Native American poet and author. She is a Lakota enrolled member of the Standing Rock Sioux. The Nebraska University Press has a great summary of the book. The title of the book definitely piqued our interest! Hope you can join us!
Tiffany Midge is a citizen of the Standing Rock Sioux tribe and was raised in the Pacific Northwest. She is a former columnist for Indian Country Today and taught writing and composition for Northwest Indian College. Her award-winning books are The Woman Who Married a Bear and Outlaws, Renegades, and Saints: Diary of a Mixed-Up Halfbreed. Her writing has appeared in McSweeney’s, Transmotion, the Offing, Waxwing, Moss, Okey-Pankey, Lit Hub, and World Literature Today. Midge resides in Moscow, Idaho, where she has served as the city’s poet laureate.

Please feel welcome to attend, even if you missed earlier meetings. This is an open group, and we understand that our lives are busy and not everyone will be able to attend each month!
The JEDI Book Club is facilitated by Resilient Activists Brenda Bennett-Pike and Anne Melia. We hope you will join us!
