Dear <<First Name>>,
Hope this finds you well. We'll be meeting on Monday 8 June at 7pm.
We'll be reading Mussolini's 1919 Italian Fascist Manifesto, which is very short. Here is the Zoom link.
One-click RSVP:
Yes, I'll be there!
No, I can't make it.
We also have an ongoing Twist forum. Click here to join the team. The discussion will be in the #Current Topics channel. As Twist is meant to be asynchronous, you can post there whenever you want.
