How did you hear about Did We Sell Out?

Which role are you interested in?

Tell us about your experience as a community organizer.

Panelist Questions:

"Selling out" can look different for everyone. Describe a moment in your own work where survival, growth, or visibility pushed against your values or your relationship to community — intentionally or not. This can be brief; we're looking for honesty, not a polished story.

What perspective do you want to bring to this panel that you don't often see represented in conversations about this topic?

Are there any topics or questions you'd specifically want addressed during the panel?

Workshop Lead Questions:

We'll provide the broad themes and goals for this workshop in advance. What facilitation experience do you bring that would help you lead a group through this material? (e.g., group facilitation, training/teaching, conflict resolution, etc.)

What's your facilitation style — how do you typically keep a room engaged for an extended session like this?

Have you facilitated a workshop before? If so, where/for whom?

Can you confirm you will be available on October 11th, 2026?

Any accessibility needs or accommodations you’d like us to be aware of?

We really want this to be a conversation, so please feel encouraged to share your thoughts.

Thank you for filling out this interest form.

Here's what to expect next:

We'll review applications on a rolling basis through August 31st.

You'll hear back from us by mid September, regardless of outcome.

If selected, we'll follow up with details on compensation, schedule, and any prep needed before October 11.
