Bivett Brackett

"I’m running for Democratic Central Committee because I love our city and its diverse residents. If elected, I promise to help return San Francisco to its true progressive roots by ensuring local policies are focused on the benefit of working-class people. Everyone should have their basic needs met.

For changes to be made, we need to elect Democrats with more than just political experience – our candidates need life experience and a personal understanding of {middle-class struggles.} We need to change.

As your Central Committee member, I will use my experience as an activist to hold our candidates accountable and help foster the inclusivity needed to truly create a San Francisco for all residents. Central Committees should not be controlled by powerful special interests or career politicians; they belong firmly in the hands of the people.

I’ve devoted my life to public service and I know what it takes to usher in change. I grew up in District 5 and raised my kids in District 10 and a graduate of Lowell High. I know we can revitalize our communities and create a government for the people. I would be honored to have your vote and serve as your next committee member. We can do this – together."

Tyra Fennell

Tyra Fennell is resident of the Bayview Hunters Point and founder of Imprint City, based in the Dogpatch at the Minnesota Street Project. Imprint City is an organization activating underutilized areas with art projects to encourage increased foot traffic in support of local merchants. Under Tyra’s leadership, this organization has welcomed over 8,000 event goers to the Bayview Hunters Point neighborhood.

Tyra is an Assembly District 17 delegate who has co-authored legislation and serves as the vice chair for San Francisco's African American Arts and Cultural District. She is a co-founder of the San Francisco Eastern Neighborhoods Democratic Club (ENDC), serves on the board of the San Francisco Bay Area Planning and Urban Research Association (SPUR), Open Door Legal as well as a Film Commissioner and an Emerge California Alum. Tyra is a proud, legacy graduate of Howard University.

Nadia Rahman

"As a Muslim American woman of color and child of immigrants who came to the United States to seek a better life for themselves and their children, I personally know how much is at stake for people like me in the Trump era. After the 2016 election, I had the choice of tuning out and acting as if every fiber of who I am as a human being wasn’t under threat - or resisting, engaging and fighting for the democratic ideals America represents. I chose to become an activist and fight like hell.

I showed up for marches, rallies, and meetings. I phone banked, canvassed and rallied my personal networks across the country to show up and vote democratic in the 2018 midterms election. Representation, inclusion, social equity and justice are critically important to me, and I believe that a strong Democratic party is the way to preserve and strengthen these ideals for San Francisco and for the United States. I’m running for the San Francisco Democratic County Central Committee (DCCC) in California Assembly District 19 (AD-19) because I want to strengthen our local democratic party by ensuring accountability of our elected officials and local government, investing in our community, registering and engaging voters, and improving our quality of life by supporting Democratic candidates and ballot measures that support small business, education and affordability."

Cyn Wang

Cyn Wang is running for Democratic Party leadership (Democratic County Central Committee). She is a native San Franciscan, a small business owner, attorney, LGBT champion, and mom to a SFUSD kindergartner. Her family’s business, Wang Insurance, has been at 31st and Judah since 1979. Cyn previously served as a U.S. diplomat during the Obama Administration. She began her career by serving as Assistant City Attorney to several Bay Area cities. She is a proud graduate of Smith College and the UC Davis School of Law.

"As a native San Franciscan, i have watched too many of my friends, family, and favorite small businesses leave because they can no longer afford to stay. I believe San Francisco’s affordability crisis is the gravest threat to our progressive values, diversity, and sustainability. On a national level, we have a white house focused on dismantling our democracy. A strong democratic party is our best firewall against Donald Trump. I bring a deep well of experience in land use, public policy, and diplomacy to tackle our problems head-on."

Blockchain and Cryptocurrency for Beginners

blockchain-3.png

There is likely to be an entirely new generation of billionaires in the making as blockchain and cryptocurrency technology takes hold in the mainstream, as well as quite a few multi-millionaires amongst the "early adopters" still getting in now.

Unfortunately, many of the same structural problems that plague traditional finance are already emerging in cryptocurrency, where women make up less than 4% of total investors.  

Join Gyals Network for an intersectional dialogue on the fundamentals of blockchain and cryptocurrency and learn how it will shape our future.  Join this event if you are seeking answers to the following: 

  • Blockchain and cryptocurrency: What is it?

  • Cryptocurrency: Is it safe? How is it real? How does it have value?

  • How are institutions investing blockchain and cryptocurrency?

  • Confusing press: Blockchain and cryptocurrency in the media

  • How do I get involved? Is too late to invest?

  • How to get a career in blockchain/cryprocurrency?

The all-women panel discussion will be led by:

  • Erika Barraza, Founder-CEO, EVRealities

  • Marquesa Finch, Blockchain Health Lead for Silicon Valley Blockchain Society

  • Mimi Li, Founder Crypto Girl Blog

  • Moderator: Jasmine Gill, Founder Gyals Netrwork

 Program

  • 6:30-7:00 - Sign up, Appetizers/Beverages and Networking

  • 7:00-7:45 - Discussion + Q&A

Juicy Talks Series: Self Love

An intimate conversation series hosted by Gyals Network.

An intimate conversation series hosted by Gyals Network.

Lets talk self love!

Join us for an evening of radical self-love to answer the question: "How do you practice radical self-love and what do you hope to learn from others?" 

This talk is inspired by the book, "The Body is not an Apology Movement"  by Sonya Renee Taylor.  

More on Sonya:

She gave an inspiring talk at TEDxMarin back in October and her new book is set to release later next week. 

A friend first introduced to her SpokenWord over 5 years ago and found her strength and confidence inspiring. Sonya has continued to travel the global and give powerful performances like this one on SnapJudgement.  Now there is a movement and a following.   By finding our own inner strength we can then go on to do bigger work in our community.

This talk will be help in San Francisco.  Exact location details will be sent before the event.

We all want to reach our goals. But are we starting with ourselves?  How do we bridge the gap between personal wellness and reaching our goals? 

Join us July 19th, 6PM at the AdRoll headquarters in SF to learn ways to nourish and resource yourself amongst a chaotic world and discover how doing so allows you to be more powerful in achieving your goals. In this workshop we will explore the topics of boundaries, self care through mindfulness practices. Come nourish yourself and engage in  juicy conversations amongst like minded, diverse women. 

What you will get from this workshop:

  • Learn how putting yourself first is the pathway to impacting the world for the better
  • Practical and down to earth ways to support your own wellbeing
  • Tools on boundaries: learn how saying no can help your YES be so much more powerful
  • Guided meditations and mindfulness hacks to help you connect to your center
  • Connect with like minded women for inspiring conversations on social consciousness, intersectionality and impact
  • Bridge the gap between yourself and the world. Leave feeling at ease in yourself and inspired to take action from a new, resourced place
