Did somebody call about a Ravager problem?
My plan is to just start showing up at any and all city hall meetings I can attend, whatever the subject matter. I want to listen and learn and be seen before I really start to participate.

I'm unemployed and likely to remain so for a while, so material wealth is not something I can really contribute. I'm loving destitute and living off the generosity of a much more successful family member. It seems to me like the best thing I can do is turn the idle time into some sort of good works, and trying to inject a more progressive view into my local government seems like a reasonable place to start.

Any tips from those with more experience? I'd love to hear folks' stories on their beginnings in political engagement. I live in a white suburban dream land in blue as gently caress metropolitan Chicago, but I imagine even vastly disparate locales can offer some sort of insight into how to be a helpful contributor.

Antifa is just a shortening of Anti-Fascist, as far as I know.
