7pm show. $15 tickets The Kennedys return to Isis Music Hall with their first new CD in three years. Safe Until Tomorrow’s uplifting melodies dovetail with smart and oftentimes hard-hitting lyrics that address the things we all talk about in the office and online, but with The Kennedys patented tuneful sheen. That calls for a strong dose of classic folk-rock punch, Maura’s angelic vocals and straight-from-the-heart lyrics. Pete has also just released his long-awaited book, “Tone, Twang, and Taste: A Guitar Memoir” and will be reading short excerpts from it at this show. Limited Tables Available with a Dinner Reservation :: All Other Seating is First Come First Serve General Admission :: Please Call Venue for Dinner (Table) Reservations. Phone: 828.575.2737 https://isiasheville.com//event/kennedys-cd-release-tour/

We hope you can make it out to another community potluck, this time at United Community Development, in the basement of World Wide Missionary Baptist Church. As we continue to build relationships centered on dismantling white supremacy within ourselves & our community, we are centering economic class and its important place in the work of building a cross-class movement. “If we don’t become bold about what cross-class solidarity work means as white folks yearning for racial justice, our work will be less effective and our wins short-lived.”
– http://www.showingupforracialjustice.org/cross-class-capacity-tool.html
Ignoring issues of class can have a disastrous effect on our resilient, collaborative, and far reaching movements for racial justice. So let’s come together to brainstorm ways to see class divisions and take action for an inclusive and durable movement. We will be breaking bread together, and then breaking into caucuses where there will be opportunities to build class consciousness, focus on bringing in more folks, and promote cross class leadership and organizing going forward.
We are grateful for United Community Development who is providing us the space, and will be brimming to hear a brief explanation of its work and its project The Real Asheville Initiative, a multiracial group placing poor and working class people of color in charge of the collection of data and the movements for change they wish to see. We will be collecting donations as a thanks for letting us use the space, and can offer information on how to get involved in this crucial work.
Everyone is welcome! Please bring a dish to share or just yourself!
To RSVP, ask questions, or volunteer to help: [email protected]
We lack the ability to provide childcare at this time. Please message us if you would like to assist in providing childcare services so that we can extend the invitation to parents/ caregivers.
Apologies, as United Community Development is not wheelchair accessible.
