Who is our audience for this?
I’d (sam) love to work with activists in the city, but I see value in reaching out to tech-minded folks who already have a foot in the door interest-wise so by the time we invite others in, there’s a robust network already online
it’s feeling more and more urgent to get people online in Southwest Detroit
There could be two versions of the workshop
one to connect pre-interested people to get the city connected as well as possible
then another to get newer folks (non-techy perhaps) online so they can use the network for other purposes
