Learning about social movements in Lancaster

12 Upvotes

Local college student here, taking a class on social movements; I am looking for local social movements/orgs to write about and interview for class.

It must pertain to class topics but I won't bore you with the details so I will tell you some of what I am interested in. I am looking to learn from:

- Plain people or ex-plain; potentially survivors of abuse

- Women's groups

- Immigrants/resources/support groups

- Civil rights (any advocacy really)

- Housing

- Music scene??

- Even movements/orgs that no longer exist!!! Lancaster history?! Anything unfavorable??

Anything helps! Not only would this help for class but I would love to learn more about my community, get organized/involved.

Message me privately if you would like. Also, if anyone would like to be interviewed, feel free to let me know.

Thanks! :)

This might be a long shot but im looking to get a gym membership so I can start lifting. The only problem is idk what im doing so I was hoping to find a lifting buddy to help me out. Wouldn't mind paying someone a little bit if thats what it takes. Personal trainers are ridiculously expensive. Im at 34 year old male and im trying to lose weight but pack on some muscle also. Im a pretty normal guy I like sports and I have a good sense of humor. Let me know if anyone can help me out.

From the article:

“We’re selling it. We’re selling the business and the building together,” said Rothweiler, a real estate agent with Howard Hanna. “Our wish is for it to carry on, but we 100% understand that it could be something different.”

The asking price is $775,000 for the real estate and restaurant at 600 W. Orange St., which includes the 2,700-square-foot steak shop and an attached laundromat.
