Research check

Checked Oct 21, 2026 for ways to get involved: found events this site can't list yet, and found no community to join.

Found, but this site has no way to show it yet:

  • The Become a Member page says membership orientation meets on the 3rd Saturday of each month, "see calendar for details" — but the calendar has never listed an orientation, and no time or place is published anywhere, so there is nothing a reader could actually show up to. It is also aimed at Jackson and Mississippi residents (out-of-state supporters are pointed to Friends of Jackson chapters).

Re-checked 2026-10-21 to backfill recurring events now that Event.recurrence exists, and none were added. The Build and Fight Formula Educational Series (second Tuesday monthly, 6pm CT, streamed on YouTube and social media) is still described on its January 2025 announcement page, but the last session on the calendar is #7 on 2025-08-12, and nothing has been listed since — listing it as ongoing would be a guess. The calendar's newest entry of any kind is Black August, 20-23 August 2025. The Really Really Free Market last appears on 2025-02-15. Worth re-checking if the calendar comes back to life. No Slack, Discord, or forum: only an email updates list, which doesn't meet the Forum bar.
