Hello everyone!!! For the past month with have been testing out our website, trying to find the best way to create a platform to serve all residents of Northern Arizona who want to celebrate the rich diversity of people and places in our region and preserve our often chaotic Democracy, which often veers from fragile to resilient. We hope to build this platform as a strong collaboration of voices, (some leading the charge with others seeking to work behind the scenes) sharing information on issues and events that impact our local community. But we need your help! Please send us your latest news and upcoming events. If you feel so inclined, send us short guest commentaries on the latest issues of the day impacting our local community. These are challenging times for Diversity and Democracy, but together we can make a positive impact, share all the good work being done locally by citizens and residents in Northern Arizona, and get into a little "Good Trouble," a motto epitomized by the late Civil Rights leader and U.S. Rep. John Lewis. Thank you all for your contributions...MosaicNAZ
