COVID-19 is still around and very much detrimental to one's health. Epidemic Trends data, as well as some recent anecdotal data shows that COVID-19 infections are on the rise in Kansas. Please take care of yourselves and others. As a precaution, the steering committee has decided that KN95/N95 masks must be worn during the General Body Meeting that is happening this Thursday. We will have masks available for anyone who does not have one.

Picnic
Thanks to everyone who came out and contributed to the amazing Picnic last week! It was so great to meet new folks and connect with K-State's YDSA!
Tenant Organizing
The Housing Justice and Tenant Organizing working group, Flint Hills Tenants United, is working on organizing Geary Estates. Joey, a tenant at Geary Estates, reached out to us about how their landlord was being unresponsive and not fixing their AC so we canvassed around and found out many other tenants were experienceing similar issues. Instead of just helping Joey, we want to try and help the whole complex! Right now we are in the process of canvassing the complex to see who else is expereincing issues and invite them to join us in making Geary Estates a better place to live, through organizing a Tenant Associaiton. We would love to have more folks come canvass with us! Its a great way to get necessary experience talking with everyday people and spreading class consciousness.
