Dear Paris,


May 4th's Pop-Up Party for the Purple Line is more than a party. It's a chance to see each other, get clear on what's at stake, and wake up. Too often the East Side gets left behind because we can't find each other to build power and voice. ESABA's advocacy is all about how businesses and organizations on the East Side make a stronger stand. Come see that and get a piece of it on Saturday. If we're going to get the Arcade station out of the gully, it's gonna take all of us. Then we're headed over to keep the momentum moving down White Bear Ave with Cinco de Mayo hosted by the Greater Eastside Community Council. Attend, learn, speak up, and help shape the slow-roll for Purple greatness.

Caught 'em doing good! These Youth were putting their backs behind the clean-up effort on Saturday. I couldn't catch em smiling but they had a great time and they helped us fill a 30 yard dumpster with ESABA members on Payne. Great work PABA and friends!
