MON 11/16. 7pm. A Tribute to Betty Ann Knudsen – Wake County Democratic Party to Honor Betty Ann Knudsen
The Galaxy Cinema in Cary.
The tribute is free and open to the public. The program planned to honor Betty Ann Knudsen will include a screening of “Show Up, Speak Out: The Public Life of Betty Ann Knudsen”. As a volunteer and elected official, Betty Ann Knudsen has led vital efforts to improve the quality of life for all who call Raleigh their home. Betty Ann Knudsen was instrumental in the merger of the Raleigh City and Wake County school systems, the implementation of the Capital Area Transit (CAT) system of public transportation, the establishment of a greenway system, the community use of schools, and scattered site strategy for public housing. In 1975 she wrote the successful application for Raleigh’s “All American City Award” and in 1976 was chosen Raleigh’s Volunteer of the Year. Knudsen was the first woman to serve as chair of the Wake County Board of Commissioners. Perhaps Knudsen’s greatest contribution has been that of role model and mentor for women in public service. A lifelong Democrat, Knudsen ran several campaigns, including that of Isabella Canon, Raleigh’s first female mayor, and served as an elected official herself. Show Up, Speak Out should inspire anyone interested in grassroots politics, North Carolina history, or women’s issues.

If you are interested in this, please read the description below and follow directions at the bottom to register, no later than November 8. The Dinner Dialogues provide an opportunity for people to meet people of other faith traditions, share their experiences, listen to the sharing of others, and converse about matters of faith and spirituality in a safe, controlled environment.
–The Dinner Dialogue is the cornerstone event of the Amazing Faiths Project. In this event, people gather in groups of 8-10 in private homes to share a meal and engage in a moderated discussion about the role of faith or spirituality in their lives. Dinner guests register themselves to be placed into a host home for the evening of the dialogue. Hosts volunteer to provide their home as a meeting place for the dialogue, and to provide a simple, nutritious meal for themselves and the guests. Hosts are informed of what kind of foods are appropriate for this event. Each group discussion is managed by a moderator. Moderators are selected by Project organizers and trained to facilitate the conversation in a structured way that creates a safe space for all to share and listen. Guests share a meal and dialogue together with the use of dialogue cards created exclusively for the Amazing Faiths Project, which contain thought provoking questions about the broad themes present in nearly all faith traditions and worldviews.
