Dr. Clarence B. Jones wrote Martin Luther King's I Have a Dream speech. He'll be 92 in a couple of months. But today he's here at #ComNet22

There's a lot of talk from YouTubers that SEO doesn't matter anymore, and I agree with some of their points; however, if you type "Seattle" into YouTube right now, @invisiblepeople's video we posted this morning ranks 1st or 2nd. For advocacy and education, SEO matters #COMNET22

“Living in poverty is like walking on a tight rope without a floor to catch you.” — @stepville #comnet22 keynote speaker

“Being poor felt like being on probation for the crime of not having enough funds.” — @stepville, #comnet22

Looking forward to #COMNET22! Hope to see you there!

Opening reception of #COMNET22. @TheComNetwork always brings it. #comms4good

It’s so important to center care over correctness in language. #ComNet22

Handing out @hanes socks with @bjpoppe. A great ending to a beautiful ten days in Seattle. #comnet22

I’m just going to put this out there in the universe: This is what it looks like for lactating #moms on a work trip. It’s an exhausting work of love. We might be late to a session or skip happy hr for a reason. Amazing that #ComNet22 created a nursing room. We need more of this!

This! Her! Thank you @stepville for an honest talk on the realities far too many people face in the US and globally: home and food insecurity. This should not be something any person or family ever has to endure. #poverty #COMNET22

“As humans we are all part of a bigger story but we have to see each other ... The only way to see change is to listen to people who have experience in systemic violence, racism, and poverty … Our dignity is being alive.” —@stepville #comnet22

I have 12 pairs of @hanes socks left. I always try to give two pairs to each homeless person, but at times, like now, there are so many people I have to cut down to one pair each. There may be more than 24 people here, so I hate this dilemma. GAH! #comnet22

Loving this session with @robertegger @NonprofitAF ! Amazing, compelling speakers willing to take on the hard topics related to shaking up the nonprofit sector. Thank you. 🙏 #ComNet22

“If the surviving lions don’t tell their stories, the hunters will get all of the credit.” -African Proverb spoken by the great Dr. Clarence B. Jones at @TheComNetwork #ComNet22

#comnet22

Words cannot express my gratitude for @moorghen’s friendship and his ongoing belief in me and @invisiblepeople. #ComNet22

Something we don’t talk enough about when it comes to #CrisisCommunications: The focus on the impact on your internal team. Will you have a team at the end of the day? Will your colleagues be your ally or your opposition? #ComNet22 @TheComNetwork

Excited to be at #COMNET22 and be welcomed by @MayorofSeattle

Thanks @TheComNetwork for creating space these past 3 days for learning, connection & community. Excited to pay it forward as we use #comms4good every day to advance equity & justice. #comnet22
