Free, Zoom only book talk that might interest people here

Hello,

In my non-Grouvee life, I’m a labor history archivist. My research center hosts a series of Zoom-only, free book talks on labor history topics. There’s one coming up on March 27 at 7PM EST that people here might be interested in.

Associate Professor of Women’s and Gender Studies at Saint Louis University Amanda L. Izzo will discuss St. Louis Teamsters Local 688 and its embrace of feminist and progressive policies in the 1960s and 1970s. You can register for the talk through the event page and all registrants will receive a link to the recording.

I hope to see many of you there!! It’s totally free!!

Thanks,
Vakil

Registered and excited. I’m in the office on Thursdays but usually get home just prior to 7pm. I presume that attendees are muted by default so that if I’m simultaneously logging in and also grabbing dinner it won’t disturb anyone, yes?

Oh and I just realized I signed up with my personal email address, which isn’t tied to Zoom. My university email address is. Should I change that?

Ooh I will register. I too work later on Thursdays but I have a rehearsal that night too, so I will def check out the recording. I have some colleagues that might be interested as well.

@BMO email doesn’t matter if a different org is hosting the meeting.

I recognize that, but my University zoom account has my name, etc. I didn’t know if that matters for confirming entry against reservations. I’ve been denied entry for signing up to other Zoom talks for personal reasons and then my Zoom account email not matching because they are only admitting the specific registered emails.

I send out the Zoom link to all registrants a day or two beforehand. You should be able to just join normally. Since I’m the host, you don’t have to be signed in to your account, I think, just have Zoom installed.

As far as muted, yes, you should be. If you’re not, I’ll mute you myself. :slight_smile:

I can also change your email address, if you want.

This is so incredibly cool and thank you for the work you do! I am in a different timezone and probably will be too sleepy to watch the talk live, but I am registering because I would love to see the recording - hope this is okay :]

If you registered, you should have received the Zoom link yesterday and this morning. Please let me know if you didn’t.

What email domain would it come from? And do you know the subject line?
