No two people in the country have done more to bring sanity to the gun debate than former US Rep. Gabby Giffords and her Astronaut husband, Mark Kelly.  Now, Mark is running to unseat Sen. Martha McSally (R-Ariz.) in 2020, who was appointed to fill Sen. John McCain’s seat when he died.
No one will do more to bring an end to the stranglehold that the NRA has on our government. In stark contrast, Trumpster Sen. McSally is an NRA darling. Please join Joyce Rey and friends to support the work of these two strong, thoughtful and courageous people.

How to Be There for Your Teenager – Active Listening with Daisy Johnston @ Glamifornia Style Lounge
Mar 13 @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm

Daisy’s interactive course will teach you* how to talk to, listen to, and how to be there for your kids.  Valuable skills in general, but all the more timely right now, when our children and teens are processing the trauma of the Woolsey Fire and either losing their home, or grieving with friends who lost their home.

As a suicide hotline volunteer, Daisy has trained for over 100 hours in active listening. Daisy and other Los Angeles high schoolers answer calls, texts, and emails from teens in crisis, from all over the world.  Every day, over 3000 high school kids will attempt suicide.

Daisy (15) is already a loving, giving, multi-talented  member of the Malibu community.   On top of her studies, she volunteers at Cedars Sinai with the teen suicide hotline, scoops ice create at Malibu Yoghurt, and is a Board Member of the Malibu Democratic Club.  Daisy is the youngest of 3 sisters.  She lives in Malibu and Venice.

Cost: $ 35 ($ 5 donated to TeenLine)

Screening of “The Public”, Q&A with Emilio Estevez & Clara Jeffery @ Laemmle Music Hall
Mar 13 @ 7:30 pm – 10:00 pm
Screening of "The Public", Q&A with Emilio Estevez & Clara Jeffery @ Laemmle Music Hall

Join Universal, Mother Jones, and PATH (People Assisting the Homeless) for a special screening of “The Public,” a film by Emilio Estevez. Film screening will be followed by a Q&A with writer/director Emilio Estevez and Mother Jones’ editor-in-chief Clara Jeffery.

Film synopsis: In “the public” an unusually bitter Arctic blast has made its way to downtown Cincinnati and the front doors of the public library where the action of the film takes place. The story revolves around the library patrons, many of whom are homeless, mentally ill and marginalized, as well as an exhausted and overwhelmed staff of librarians who often build emotional connections and a sense of obligation to care for those regular patrons. At odds with library officials over how to handle the extreme weather event, the Patrons turn the building into a homeless shelter for the night by staging an “Occupy” sit in. What begins as an act of civil disobedience becomes a stand off with police and a rush-to-judgment media constantly speculating about what’s really happening. This David versus Goliath story tackles some of our nation’s most challenging issues, homelessness and mental illness and sets the drama inside one of the last bastions of democracy-in-action: your public library.

Presidential Candidate Pete Buttigieg Meet & Greet @ Bar Lubitsch
Mar 14 @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm
Presidential Candidate Pete Buttigieg Meet & Greet @ Bar Lubitsch

Who is Pete Buttigieg? (Pronounced BOOT-a-jedge) Or “Mayor Pete” for short!

Magna cum Laude Harvard grad.  Rhodes Scholar.  Navy Vet.  Married.  Gay.  Age 37.  Mayor of South Bend, Indiana, a red state, home of VP Mike Pence.  And he’s running for President.  Some say he doesn’t have a shot, but Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and Obama were largely unknowns until they ran for President.  The Washington Post wrote about him and they haven’t ruled him out either. (Read Here.)

Don’t rely on tv, when you can meet the Presidential candidates in person, to form your own opinion of whose the best person for the job.

Mayor Pete is winning voters one living room at a time.

James & The Giant Peach by Malibu’s Julia Holland @ Assistance League Theatre
Mar 17 @ 2:00 pm
JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH

Directed by Julia Holland
Musical Direction by Andy Gladbach
Choreography by Steven Nielsen

Sundays at 2:00 pm
March 3 thru April 7, 2019
Assistance League Theatre, 1367 North St. Andrew Place, Los Angeles, CA 90028-8592

Roald Dahl’s James and the Giant Peach features a wickedly tuneful score by the Tony & Academy Award-winning team of Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (Dear Evan Hansen, La La Land, The Greatest Showman)and a curiously quirky book by Timothy Allen McDonald. Critics rave: James and the Giant Peach is a “masterpeach!” When James is sent by his conniving aunts to chop down their old fruit tree, he discovers a magic potion that results in a tremendous peach… and launches a journey of enormous proportions. Suddenly, James finds himself in the center of the gigantic peach, among human-sized insects with equally oversized personalities, but after it falls from the tree and rolls into the ocean, the group faces hunger, sharks and plenty of disagreements. A magical, musical production for the whole family to enjoy!

Non Violent Strategies to Effect Change
with Rev. James Lawson

Saturday, March 23rd
9am – noon

Holman United Methodist Church
3320 West Adams Blvd.
Free! All are welcome!  Bring a friend!

Let’s imagine… Spending a Morning with a National Treasure
I assume by this point you all know who Reverend James Lawson is.  That he was the leading proponent of nonviolent protests during the Civil Rights movement. That he brought this philosophy of change to MLK.  That he gives a monthly workshop in LA.  It is inspiring, and delightful.  Seems like something we all need to put on our calendar and get to!
