SUMMARY:From Red Wine & Blue: stay involved and keep calm
DESCRIPTION:In these times\, with the headlines about ICE raids and the government shutdown and extremists attacking our schools\, it’s hard to know how to stay grounded. And it’s even harder to know how to talk to our kids about tough issues and manage their anxiety. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe want you to stay involved and keep calm\, which is why we’ve invited psychologist Dr. Stephanie Citron and therapist Deborah Paris (Stephanie is RWB founder Katie Paris’ mother and Deborah is her mother-in-law!) for an important discussion about how to do just that.  \nRSVP for When the World’s on Fire: Caring for Ourselves and our Kids on Monday\, October 27\, at 7PM ET! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe analogy about the oxygen masks on airplanes is true – we have to make sure our own needs are taken care of before we can help others. \nRed Wine & Blue members are talking to tens of thousands of potential voters right now about why the upcoming elections are so important. It’s really fulfilling work\, but it also means keeping in mind how rough things are\, and what’s at stake. \nAnd our kids are going to school every day amidst the increasing gun violence\, fights over curriculum\, and an economy in upheaval that’s affecting their families. It’s no wonder anxiety is on the rise in our children! \nOn Monday\, Stephanie and Deborah will give us tools to protect our mental health in these troubled times. They’ll share practical advice on talking to kids about tough issues\, helping them manage anxiety\, and ways for adults to stay grounded and resilient. \nWe all need a little self care right now\, so don’t miss this important conversation! \nRSVP now for When the World’s on Fire: Caring for Ourselves and our Kids. \nSee you there! \nJulie \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP

SUMMARY:From Red Wine & Blue: LEAVING MAGA: WHY WE LEFT AND HOW TO HELP OTHERS
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a candid conversation with three people who changed their minds\, left the movement behind\, and are now helping others do the same through their organization\, Leaving MAGA.

SUMMARY:From Red Wine & Blue: The kids are not all right
DESCRIPTION:We’re in anxious times\, and it’s not just adults who feel like they’re constantly on the verge of a panic attack. Our kids are facing a mental health crisis\, too. \nThe sad reality is that young people today face immense pressure\, from the threat of climate change and gun violence to the long-term impact of COVID and untreated trauma. \nWatching a kid struggle with their mental health – be it silent tears\, intrusive thoughts\, acting out in school or full on physical illness – can leave a parent or teacher paralyzed and heartbroken\, but that doesn’t mean there is nothing we can do. \nFortunately\, there are experts out there who can help us understand what families\, schools\, and communities can do to support the young people in our lives\, and on Tuesday\, we’re going to talk about it.   \nCan you join us on Tuesday\, October 21 at 7:30PM ET to hear psychiatrist Dr. Mathilde Ross share her wisdom with the Red Wine & Blue community? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhile the conversation about mental health has come a long way since we were kids\, it can feel like the dangers of psychological problems have only increased. \nWhile anxiety is a natural human response\, it can be hard to know the difference between what’s age-appropriate and normal\, and what’s potentially alarming. And the media coverage of the teen mental health crisis isn’t helping anyone feel more prepared! \nA recent study by the CDC found that 11% of children ages 3-17 had current\, diagnosed anxiety\, while 20% of 12-17 year-olds reported regularly feeling symptoms of anxiety. \nThese statistics are real and alarming\, but they can also lead us to react in unhelpful ways. Dr. Ross will break down the facts and leave us with the tools we need to build more supportive communities for all kids. \nJoin us to hear from Dr. Ross and help build a strong foundation of support for the mental health of young people in your community.

SUMMARY:NO KINGS Palm Beach Gardens
DESCRIPTION:Location\n\n\nPGA Boulevard & Campus Drive\n3188 PGA Blvd\nPalm Beach Gardens\, FL 33410 \n\n\nMap\n\n\n\nWhere: PGA Blvd and Campus Dr.\, near North County Courthouse\, across from Gardens Mall (our usual corner)\nPark: at courthouse\, DMV\, or Sears parking lot at Gardens Mall\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSPEAKING UP FOR AMERICA/INDIVISIBLE welcomes you to our sixth rally: In America\, we don’t put up with would-be kings. \nOur peaceful movement is only getting bigger and stronger. “NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan—it’s the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets\, carried by millions in chants and on posters\, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares\, uniting people across this country to fight dictatorship together. \nThe president thinks his rule is absolute. But in America\, we don’t have kings\, and we won’t back down against chaos\, corruption\, and cruelty. Grow our movement and join us. \nA core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind\, including those legally permitted\, should not be brought to events.

SUMMARY:HOW ATTACKS ON PUBLIC EDUCATION HARM STUDENTS OF COLOR
DESCRIPTION:\\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAttacks on public education are escalating but the impacts are not being felt equally by all students. Cuts to funding and restrictive new policies are falling hardest on Black and brown students\, deepening long-standing inequities in our schools. Join us to learn about these disparities from the educational experts at EdTrust as we explore how current education policies and funding cuts disproportionately harm students of color. We’ll explore the root causes of chronic absenteeism\, the bigger picture of inequities in education\, and what we can do to push back and ensure every child has the opportunity to thrive. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSIGN UP NOW

SUMMARY:From Red Wine & Blue: Join banned book authors
DESCRIPTION:Book bans aren’t in the news like they used to be\, and the number of book bans documented by PEN America this school year has dropped 40% from last year.1 \nBut that doesn’t mean we’ve won the battle for the freedom to read. \nPEN America has still documented nearly 7\,000 book bans this year. And worse\, extremist groups like Moms for Liberty have turned to under-the-radar methods to stop kids from reading. \nThis week is Banned Books Week\, and we’re kicking off our celebration tomorrow night by talking to PEN America and authors whose books have been taken off the shelves! We’ll explore the current state of book banning\, the new playbook of censorship\, and the real impact on writers and readers alike. Most importantly\, we’ll learn how to join the fight against book bans and protect the freedom to read. \nJoin us tomorrow night at 7:00PM ET for The Current State of Book Bans and How to Fight Back. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe trend of book bans received a big boost this year from the Trump administration\, whose executive orders including “Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schooling\,” “Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism\,” and “Ending Radical And Wasteful Government DEI Programs And Preferencing” were used as justification for bans in Department of Defense schools and school districts nationwide.2 \nDistricts are fearing government retaliation for allowing certain books in the schools to the point where they are preemptively removing books before they have the chance to be challenged. \nTomorrow\, we’ll talk about these and other kinds of “shadow bans\,” who is being banned (Stephen King topped the list this year)\, and how banning books harms our kids’ education. And we’ll talk about how we can fight back! \nLet’s come together for the right to read! RSVP for our Banned Books Week event now. \nSee you there!

SUMMARY:Stacey Abrams: Taking Back Our Power in 2025
DESCRIPTION:Brought to us by Katie @ Red Wine & Blue:  “I was so excited to meet this grassroots force behind Fair Fight and New Georgia Project\, which together registered more than 1 million new voters between the 2018 and 2020 elections. And when I told her about the new organization I started\, Red Wine & Blue\, she was really excited to hear about it! \nShe has taken on the political establishment\, extremist legislators\, and Donald Trump\, and she’s still pushing forward. And even in the face of growing threats\, she never\, ever gives up. We need that kind of energy in our lives now! \nOn Thursday\, October 2 at 7:00PM ET\, we’re going to talk to Stacey about where we are as a country\, what’s at stake for all of us\, and how we can fight back. This is a conversation about how we win and how we build the power we need at every level of government\, and you don’t want to miss it! \nRSVP for Taking Back our Power in 2025 w/ Stacey Abrams on October 2 at 7:00PM ET! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUntil Stacey took the streets beginning in 2013\, two-thirds of voters in Georgia were white – even though white people make up a little less than half the population.1 \nThe Democratic party at the time wanted to double down on white\, middle-of-the road voters to wrest the state away from the extremists running it.2 \nStacey knew they were wrong – there was a growing population of Black and Brown residents in Georgia who wanted better education\, better pay\, and a better way of life. She knew if she could get them to vote\, they could make a huge difference. And when the establishment said no\, she created her own voter registration organizations. \nBeing from Georgia myself\, I’m so excited about how Stacey has transformed the state\, eventually helping to send two Democrats to the U.S Senate in 2020. Now she is known nationwide as one of the most respected organizers in the country. \nAs a grassroots women’s organization\, Red Wine & Blue knows what it’s like to be told no at every turn. But we have to push forward anyway\, and Stacey is the perfect person to show us the way. \nJoin Red Wine & Blue and Stacey Abrams to talk about why local organizing matters\, how we build real power\, and the steps we must take to protect our future!” \nRSVP for Taking Back our Power in 2025 w/ Stacey Abrams!

SUMMARY:LET'S TALK ABOUT AUTISM: FACTS VS. MYTHS
DESCRIPTION:NEW PODCAST ALERT! From Red Wine & Blue: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNow that we all have a little better handle on why the news is so crazy\, there’s another pressing question to answer: how can we make a difference without losing our shit? So in that spirit\, we’ve launched a brand-new pod that’s simply called “How To Not Lose Your Sh!t.” It’ll be hosted by Katie Paris\, the founder of Red Wine & Blue\, along with LaFonda Cousin\, our Chief People Officer\, yoga teacher\, and wellness expert. We’re so excited about this\, and you can grab a sneak peek right now! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere’s no shortage of myths and misinformation about autism and too often false information shapes how people think\, talk\, and even make policies that impact individuals with autism. Join us for this Ask Me Anything event where we will hear directly from individuals with autism and parents of autistic children as they share personal experiences\, debunk common misconceptions\, and discuss what true inclusion and support looks like.  Whether you’re looking to better understand autism\, support someone you love\, or push back against harmful narratives\, this is your chance to replace stigma with understanding and truth. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSIGN UP NOW
