Today is the last day to submit a class proposal and get it on the November Free Skool Calendar. Want to facilitate a class or know about a free class or event happening in the community that you think we should know about? Contact us or go HERE to propose a class.
Thank you to all of our facilitators and organizers who got classes together in October and to everyone who came to the feast!

Last Day to Submit a Class for November
October Feast This Sunday!
Food, community, learning? What's not to love?
The Phoenix Free Skool has a potluck feast every month to provide a space for people to come together, build up community, and collectively create the future we wish to see and live in.
This month's feast will be at 1319 E. Diamond (One street North of 13th St. and Roosevelt) at 6pm. It's a potluck so, if you can, bring a dish for folks to nom on. Vegetarian dishes much preferred.
Remember that anyone can facilitate a class as long as money is not a requirement. If you're thinking about facilitating a class, you can either come to the feast to talk with us about it or let us know online.
Consider this an open and standing invitation to all people, groups, and organizations doing the hard groundwork to empower and strengthen the people. We believe that people who learn together and who eat together will fight together. We must find the ways that each of our struggles are interconnected. It is at this intersection where we propose to meet and, having found our common ground, hold it and expand it for the good of all peoples. We believe that this is possible through an organization which builds trust across borders and strengthens the minds of its people.
We believe that true learning is a form of resistance because it teaches people how to think critically. Once people are empowered with the ability to question and the knowledge that they can find the answers themselves, they become unstoppable.

October Calendar is on its way!
Free Skoolers!
The October Calendar has been drawn up, but we are waiting on a high resolution scan to print and distribute official copies. Until then, we'll post up the low res copies on our blog so that you can get a taste of what's available this month! We will update you when the physical posters are printed!
