[Fuusmchat] Fwd: Black lives matter

[Ted Goertzel]

That's a good suggestion, I asked to join the Facebook Group which is
called "Peaceful and Silent Demonstration in Marietta Ohio"  It has 1,345
members and 12 new posts today, but I can't see them while my membership is
"pending" .  Others might want to ask to join

The suggestion of a Coffee House makes sense except for the obvious
fact that it requires meeting physically in the church.  I expect the
younger generation may be read for that before the older one, for good
reason.  The Coffee House we did have was very much a baby boomer nostalgia
event, as I recall, nobody from younger generations.  It was fun, I enjoyed
it, but I'm 77.

I also wonder if our social media presence, new as it is for us, isn't a
bit behind the younger generation.  There's an article in the current New
Yorker called Zoom Fatigue
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vTroXc_Yhl0c7IeP6MC9_kWDly0azd8UQlfq_LWp7Q8/edit?usp=sharing>
which claims that “FaceTime is so pre-covid.” and says the younger
generation is into a service called Houseparty.  It's "the virtual living
room to Zoom's virtual office."  Fifty million people have signed up in one
month.  Maybe our social media consultant could set something like that up
in collaboration with the Peaceful and Silent people.  Sort of a virtual
Coffee House where people could share their experiences, perform on
instruments, read poetry, etc.   To read the New Yorker essay click here
