SUMMARY:Letters to Incarcerated 2SLGBTQI+  Friends
CONTACT:Black and Pink PDX
DESCRIPTION:Black and Pink Portland is a locally based queer and trans 
 based prison aboliton group that fights for the liberation of 2SLGBTQI+ 
 and HIV/AIDS+ incarcerated people in Oregon. Join us for a masked ride to 
 learn about this work and get matched with an incarcerated pen pal or 
 write postcards to one of our several hundred contacts! If you already 
 have a pen-pal you can choose to use the time to write to your own pen-
 pal(s). \n\nMeet us at Colonel Summers Park to learn about prison 
 abolition and the central role letter writing plays in combating the 
 isolation and dehumanization of 2SLGBTQI+ incarcerated people. After some 
 learning\, we’ll take a gentle 5 mile neighborhood roll and return to a 
 nearby stop. At our park stop\, there’ll be time to get matched with an 
 incarcerated pen-pal and/or write post-cards! We’ll be providing all the 
 materials and resources you need to get started- no experience is 
 necessary! BYO stamps if you’d like to make a contribution. \n\nSigns\, 
 decorations and spirited energy is encouraged! *Masks required to keep our
  event accessible* \n\nAlthough you must be 18+ to be matched with a pen-
 pal\, children and teens are welcome to join for the ride and/or can write
  postcards. We’ll have coloring pages and some art supplies to keep little
  hands busy during the letter writing portion of the event as well. 
 \n\nAccess info: We’ll be taking a mostly flat\, slow-paced ride through 
 low traffic streets in SE. All levels of experience and kinds of wheels 
 are welcomed. Masks are required (we'll have extras and make sure there's 
 space to take breaks and drink water) and we ask that if you have any cold
  symptoms and/or a positive COVID test result you please skip this event. 
 Email us with 48 hours notice at blackandpinkpdx@gmail.com if you’re 
 unable to join for the biking but would like to meet us at our stops via 
 car or bus. We’d love to see you!\n\nYou can follow our work on instagram
