Free to watch · Civic education, not a political party event · Open to all Oklahomans working toward a stronger neighborhood and livelihood
Join the daily series →We're making a major pivot to reach more Oklahomans than a single room ever could. The in-person gatherings are stepping aside for a daily virtual series, starting Monday, September 28.
Sessions 1 & 2 move into the daily virtual series instead.
Sessions 3 & 4 move into the daily virtual series instead.
Session 5 moves into the daily virtual series instead.
The series lives in three places going forward. Pick the ones that fit how you like to learn, and you won't miss a session.
This series is civic education, not affiliated with any political party or campaign. All Oklahomans working toward a stronger neighborhood and livelihood are welcome, wherever they're watching from.
These educational huddles bridge the gap between cultural identity and political power — using food as the initial draw to move working adults, entrepreneurs, seniors, and people with disabilities from feeling outside the system to standing inside it, ready to act.
Ages 35–54, managing households, elders, work, and often a business on the side — frustrated, and short on time. The series speaks to every seat they're filling at once.
Carrying the daily weight of broken supply chains, inaccessible capital, and tariff costs — with no policy advocate fighting for Main Street. Their experience makes them partners in this work, not just beneficiaries of it.
Bringing institutional memory and social trust — the credibility that moves the whole room, and word travels fast when they show up first.
Bringing firsthand knowledge of where healthcare policy, infrastructure, and representation fail — with an explicit seat at the table, not an afterthought.
Balancing jobs, caregiving, and community life — the group every session is ultimately built to reach and mobilize.
Residents in rural areas may be quietly hesitant to rock the boat. The tone opens with heart-to-heart connection and love for the community — never "burn it all down."
Once safety is established, the series pivots to name the lack of representation directly — where legislative attention goes, and where it doesn't.
Everything mapped, practiced, and named across five sessions gets brought directly to the people making decisions — before the critical votes are cast, while the agenda is still being formed.
The second week of February places the community at the Capitol early — while committee assignments are fresh and legislators are still forming positions. A voice heard in February carries more weight than one heard in April, after the votes are locked.
Every participant across all five sessions. Entrepreneurs speak to the survival issues that went unaddressed in 2026. Advocates show up for healthcare and Census integrity. Seniors bring the memory of what the community has been through.
Not simply to show up — to overwhelm the Capitol with the kind of organized, multi-voiced participation that legislators cannot ignore, and cannot forget when it's time to vote.
So the 35–54 demographic never feels their time was wasted, each gathering ends with a physical takeaway.
Worksheets to map personal and community power — allies, obstacles, and where decisions actually get made.
Structured tools to document conversations with legislators and track what still needs following up.
Session summaries sent to every attendee afterward — keeping momentum and building toward what's next.
