I would like to invite everyone to join Wikimedia NYC and friends in drinking four cups of wine (or other beverage of your choice) to Free Knowledge, tonight at 7pm!
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiSeder
The WikiSeder is a secular celebration of wiki wisdom and free culture in the age of the quarantini. As we pass through our current plague, let us come together from our lockdowns to retell stories of liberation and crisis overcome through fellowship and information-sharing.
All are very welcome, this is not meant as a religious or exclusive thing. There is an American tradition since the 1960s of interfaith and secular seders highlighting social causes, and I hope WikiSeder can be in this tradition.
Whether you're marking Passover, Easter, the upcoming Ramadan, or just Spring, you're welcome to virtually join us and share comments as we proceed through the evening, and share the role and relevance of Wikipedia/Wikimedia in overcoming crises past and present, by furthering the cause of a world that can know itself a little better.
We'll do this as a livestream video episode on the Wikipedia Weekly Network podcast, so it will be public and go live on Youtube and other platforms at 7pm tonight -
We'll be able to see your comments on the various platforms and respond to them in real-time, so we encourage interaction in that way.
