Gatherings
These are public gatherings tied to this nation. You do not need an account to come or to leave a note on the board below.
Abeokuta and sister markets
Women’s associations read one page of Funmilayo’s story, then name one tax or school fight that still needs a sentence.
Community classrooms
One hour of reading and letter-writing. Visitors may sit in. Bring a name, not an account.
Community board
Leave a name. Write one clear sentence. People can lift a note they will help with. There is no public account.
