Hi all, and thanks for getting in touch! We are
happy to have the
Cascadia Wikimedians involved and excited for this event.
Do you have a logo we can use for our flyers?
Thank you
Kim

Thank you!
I'm so glad to have Cascadia involved. I've created a Meetup page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Seattle/Editi
ngasactivism#Editing_as_Activism:_Black_WikiHistory_Month_Wo
rkshop_and_Edit-a-thon
And added the link to the Black WikiHistory Month
listing for February 2017
I look forward to seeing some of you there. Please feel free to
advertise widely. Let me know if you have any questions.
Yours,
Monika (user:shameran81)
